Yangju Deokgye Industrial Complex in Gyeonggi Province to Expand Indoor Swimming Pool and Gymnasium by 2029
Public-Private Partnership Aimed at Completion by 2029... Permitting and Approval Process Set to Begin
[Break News Yangju=Kim Wan-young] On the 11th, Yangju City in Gyeonggi Province completed preliminary negotiations with Shinyoung PFV No. 3 (hereinafter Shinyoung), the developer of the Deokgye Industrial Complex, regarding public contribution to the special planning zone. Through this negotiation, Yangju City will receive a large-scale indoor sports facility, including a 25-meter, six-lane indoor swimming pool, and public office facilities, with a target completion date of 2029.
The indoor sports facility, located within the Deokgye Industrial Complex Sports Park, is designed to address the persistent shortage of recreational sports and swimming facilities in the Hoecheon District, a problem that has persisted due to the increase in apartment complexes. The plan focuses on expanding public sports infrastructure by placing the indoor swimming pool, which is in high demand among residents, as a key facility.
The two-story facility will span approximately 3,904 square meters (approximately 1,181 pyeong) and include a 25-meter, six-lane indoor swimming pool (including a children's pool and a disabled pool), a multi-purpose indoor gymnasium for basketball and badminton, a fitness center, a gymnasium, changing rooms, showers, a recovery room, and a powder room, all designed for convenience.
Notably, parking will be expanded to 140 spaces, significantly exceeding the legal limit of 40, significantly improving accessibility and convenience for visitors, including those driving.
Furthermore, Yangju City will also secure public service facilities within the neighborhood living facilities within the "Gwell Elysium Yangju Deokgye Station" apartment complex. The facility, with a total floor area of approximately 637 square meters (approximately 193 pyeong, exclusive use area of 468 square meters), will be used to support youth entrepreneurship, serve as a public service hub, and serve as a hub for the local community.
The public contribution facility is scheduled to be completed in 2029, in time for the move-in date for the "Gwell Elysium Yangju Deokgye Station" apartment complex, located in the Deokgye Industrial Complex Special Planning Zone 2. The sports facility will be developed through a public-private partnership, with Shinyoung responsible for the construction and access road construction, and Yangju City responsible for the civil engineering and landscaping of the sports park site.
Yangju City plans to provide thorough administrative support and management to ensure the smooth progress of the project through the relevant permitting and approval procedures.
A Yangju City official stated, "Through this preliminary negotiation, we have secured the most needed sports facilities, including an indoor swimming pool, and a youth entrepreneurship space. We will expedite the remaining procedures to ensure the facility is completed as planned by 2029 and becomes a public infrastructure that citizens can experience in their daily lives."
