During the morning rush hour, a tour bus became stuck under a height restriction structure in the Gwanghwamun tunnel in Seoul, leading to significant traffic congestion in the area.
According to Yonhap News, the incident occurred around 8:30 a.m. on November 6, when the bus, entering the tunnel next to the Government Seoul Complex in Jongno District, collided with the height restriction structure at the entrance.
The bus's roof struck the 3.3-meter-high structure, causing it to tilt.
Emergency services deployed three vehicles and 12 personnel to extricate the bus from the structure.
Fortunately, there were no reported injuries; however, the accident caused about an hour of traffic delays during the busy morning commute.
