<Smart Challenge Performance Examples>
Demand Response Bus (Incheon)
Expanded to all areas vulnerable to public transportation through the effect of reducing the waiting time for buses (78 → 13 minutes)
Shared parking service (Bucheon)
Expand citywide service by reducing illegal parking by 48% and increasing parking lot supply rate by 72%
□ Starting with this project, we will move away from the government-led distribution business, and promote the project with a resident participation model in which service users participate from planning to solution construction and operation stages.
