Jeonnam Police Conduct Special Inspection on High-Risk Road Construction Sections

Joint Inspection Conducted with 786 Sites and Construction Companies in Jeonnam Region

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Chunsu] The Jeonnam Provincial Police Agency announced on the 10th that from December 9th last year to the 9th of this month, they conducted a special inspection for one month together with construction companies and road management authorities on 786 road construction sections to check whether traffic safety facilities were installed and managed in accordance with traffic management guidelines.

Road construction sections have a high risk of accidents if safety facilities are inadequately installed or managed due to sudden changes in alignment and lane reductions. Especially in winter, extra caution is required due to icing, so proactive measures were taken.

As a result of the inspection, two companies conducting construction without reporting road construction were penalized, and at 87 locations lacking facilities, additional installation of construction guide signs, traffic cones, and phosphorescent facilities was carried out, significantly enhancing safety facilities to meet the visibility needs of drivers unfamiliar with the route at night.

A Jeonnam police official stated, “We will continue to conduct inspections to ensure that sufficient safety facilities are installed at road construction sites to prevent traffic inconvenience or accident risks, and we will do our best to create a ‘Safer Jeonnam.’”
