You can see the bustle of citizens as they enter the full-fledged rush hour.
Vehicles are crowding little by little at the Yeouido Transit Center here or the nearby Mapo Bridge.
However, there is no traffic disturbance that was concerned because snow was lulled and snow did not accumulate on the roadway.
Special warnings such as heavy snow warnings have been issued, but the amount of snowfall in Seoul today announced by the Meteorological Administration is 0.1cm.
I went down to 1.1cm in Seocho-gu, southeastern Seoul
Looking at the current traffic situation in Seoul, the average speed is 25 km/h, which is smooth, and the city center is 21 km/h.
It was predicted that it would snow in the afternoon, but the Meteorological Administration explained that it could fall before 9 a.m., so the fear of congestion on the way to work has not disappeared.
Each local government in the metropolitan area, where the heavy snow warning was issued, entered the emergency work system and carried out snow removal work.
The city of Seoul entered the second-stage emergency work system from 6pm yesterday.
About 8,000 people and a thousand snow plows are put into the work of clearing the snow.
Police also deploy traffic squads at 221 places where there are concerns about traffic disruption.
Gyeonggi-do and Incheon also entered the first phase of emergency work and put snow plows and snowplows in areas where freezing is vulnerable.
The number of public transportation operations has also increased.
Seoul City has extended the intensive dispatch time for subway and city buses from 7 am to 9 am to 9:30 am by 30 minutes.
As a result, the subway runs 36 times more than usual, and the minimum dispatch interval for all lines of city buses is extended by 30 minutes.
The Joongdaemun Meteorological Administration repeatedly requested that public transportation be used as much as possible, and that a safe distance should be secured when driving a vehicle unavoidably.
