Rain closes three Ara Waterway bike-road sections

K-water closed three named Ara Waterway bike-road sections from 16:00 on August 31 because of forecast rain.

What is closed

K-water closed Aramaru Observatory and the Ara Waterfall metal stairs from 13:00 on August 31.

The following bicycle-road sections closed from 16:00:

The west/left-bank Gulpo-cheon connector waterway bike road. The north-side bike road from Sicheon Bridge to Gyeyang Bridge. The south-side bike road from Sicheon Bridge to Wildflower Terrace.

The closure continues until the weather eases and K-water completes a facility inspection. The notice does not give a reopening time or an official diversion.

Rider take

Do not plan to pass through one of the three named sections until K-water posts a reopening. The notice does not say that every part of the Ara Waterway bike route is closed, so avoid extending the warning beyond those limits.

K-water's separate weather-closure criteria explain that rain or snow can trigger access restrictions at these facilities, with reopening after conditions improve and an inspection. In wet weather, the live notice matters more than an older status update.
