The Yangsan Line, which will connect Busan and Yangsan, is scheduled to open in November.

The automated light rail line will run 11.4 kilometers, linking Nopo Station on Busan Metro Line 1 with Bukjeong-dong in Yangsan, and will stop at seven stations.

Final preparations are underway, with the goal of opening in early November. Starting next month, an integrated railway test operation will be carried out.

The Busan Transportation Corporation said it will conduct thorough safety inspections to ensure a safe and smooth opening of the line.
