남북, 경의선 개성-평양 고속도로 구간 현지조사 실시
The two Koreas have completed a joint inspection of major roads in the North... between the capital of Pyongyang and the industrial city of Kaesong.
Roads they ultimately want to connect to South Korea.
According to the unification ministry, the eight-day survey ended today, after a team of 28 members from both sides examined 1-hundred-61 kilometers of road, 89 bridges... and 18 tunnels.
The two sides agreed in the Panmunjom Declaration in April... to modernize the Pyongyang-Kaesong highway,... and conduct on-site inspections to see whether it's feasible.
The South and North previously agreed to restore the motorway in 2007.
Seoul plans to analyze and review the findings of the latest study,... and is now coordinating a schedule to inspect the Gyeongui and Donghae roads... on the Peninsula's west and east sides, respectively.
