Due to the continuous heavy snow, the entry into Anyang Pangyo, which connects Seongnam-si and Anyang-si in Gyeonggi-do, was completely controlled and released in two hours.

In addition, cars are being isolated because they cannot move throughout the roads in the metropolitan area.

I'll connect you to a reporter and find out more. Reporter Yang Donghoon!

Please tell me the details.

Yes, the police began to control Anyang Pangyo-ro in Gyeonggi-do at around 2:40 p.m. today (27th).

Both the access road from Uiwang, Gyeonggi Province and the access road from Bundang in the opposite direction were controlled.

Cars on the road were ordered around because a lot of snow accumulated on the road with a steep slope, making it impossible for vehicles to climb the snow.

After that, after melting the accumulated snow, the traffic resumed in two hours.

Let's listen to the story of the driver who took a detour while on the Anyang Pangyo-ro.

[Jo Eun-hee / Anyang Pangyo-ro Driver: Cars were stuck from the middle of the road, so I came down one after another.]

On Route 45 in Anseong, Gyeonggi Province, a large truck that slipped in the snow stopped blocking two lanes of the road.

As only one car was allowed to pass, serious congestion continued in the 2-3km section.

The gridlock was cleared in an hour and a half as the trailer was able to escape after the snowplow melted.

In addition, a report was received that cars were stranded for more than an hour due to snow accumulating on the road in front of an apartment building in Gwanak-gu, Seoul.

Viewers reported that they were stuck for nearly three hours in traffic congestion near the junction of the Seoul Metropolitan Area 1 Circulation Expressway.

In addition, roads have been closed and lifted in various places, including Unjung Pass in Bundang-gu, Seongnam-si, Ibaejae Pass in Jungwon-gu, and roads near Pyeongchon Interchange on the Seoul Metropolitan Area 1 Circulation Expressway.

From dawn to 4 p.m. today, 87 reports of traffic accidents in the southern part of Gyeonggi Province were reported, and as many as 895 complaints of traffic inconvenience were received.
