Streetlight Distribution Box Disappeared on Yangcheon-gu Road

As part of Yangcheon-gu's Urban Decluttering Project, 'Integrated Streetlight Distribution Panels' Installed... Eliminating Pedestrian Obstacles to Provide a Safe and Clean Walking Environment

Before and After Installation of Integrated Streetlight Pole Distribution Panel

[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Yangcheon-gu (Mayor Kim Soo-young) is promoting the "Integrated Streetlight Pole Distribution Box Installation Project," which installs streetlight distribution boxes, previously separately installed on sidewalks, onto streetlight poles as part of the urban decluttering initiative.

Streetlight distribution boxes are necessary facilities for power supply and on/off control of streetlights, but since they were separately installed on sidewalks, they caused inconvenience to pedestrians by obstructing passage and also harmed the urban aesthetics.

Accordingly, Yangcheon-gu has been implementing a plan since 2017 to replace individually installed streetlight distribution boxes with "integrated streetlight pole distribution boxes," and the project is expected to be completed by June this year.

Once completed, 95 out of 105 streetlight distribution boxes in the area will be replaced with integrated streetlight pole distribution boxes, providing a safer and more pleasant walking environment than before, while also improving the urban landscape.

In addition, the district is working to ensure pedestrian safety and create a pleasant urban environment by removing unused structural concrete bases, replacing bollards (parking prevention facilities), and consolidating and organizing unnecessary sidewalk facilities such as bicycle racks.

A Yangcheon-gu official stated, "By installing integrated streetlight pole distribution boxes, we will reduce pedestrian obstacles and further provide a safer and cleaner walking environment to create streets where pedestrians come first."
