The Han River Portal

 

The Han River Portal is an innovative transport hub addressing Seoul's commuting and traffic woes. Many workers live outside, spending 96 mins daily travelling. Positioned near a common origin, it curbs congestion. The goal is to use the Han River's air pathway to boost city access via urban air and water mobility. It aids emergency response, cuts commute, and improves life. The project includes: 1) Converting Gayang Bridge to a terminal, 2) Adding a harbour, 3) Towers for drones, hospitality, and observation, 4) Han River-filtering Park. This portal eases Seoul's traffic and commute and offers new mobility. It reshapes city travel, ensuring swift commutes, emergency response, and downtown access.
