Seoul City Bus Homepage Opens

Buses will run on new routes starting from July 1 as a part of reform measures carried out by the city of Seoul on the public transportation system, and the new bus service lines can now be seen on the website, http://bus.seoul.go.kr.

The city had the map of modified routes made public on June 7, and the bus routes can be searched by administrative unit or by bus number.

Also, when an old bus number or route is inputted, a newly modified route can be found that closely follows the old line.

The website also features a function which finds the shortest route offered, including the subway, along with the estimated travel time when the point of departure and the destination are entered.
