Completion of Songpa Dullegil Guidance System Establishment

Installation of Over 200 Signboards Including Comprehensive and Course Guide Signs

[Asia Economy Reporter Jong-il Park] Songpa-gu (Mayor Park Seong-su) has completed the establishment of the Songpa Dullegil guidance system.

Songpa Dullegil is a 21km circular ecological walking trail that connects four waterways surrounding Songpa-gu: Seongnaecheon, Jangjicheon, Tancheon, and the Han River.

Songpa-gu is developing Songpa Dullegil as a core project of the 7th term of the Songpa-gu administration to become a pedestrian tourism attraction.

In particular, the old paths have been newly renovated, specialized spaces such as Residents’ Dedication Path and Milky Way Walkway have been created, and about 200 various signboards have been produced.

Great care was taken in producing distinctive signboards unique to Songpa Dullegil.

All signboards minimize unnecessary decorative elements and use Seoul tile dark gray color that blends naturally with the environment. However, since Songpa Dullegil consists of four courses along the waterways of Seongnaecheon, Jangjicheon, Tancheon, and the Han River, different colors are also used for each course.

First, the most noticeable is the ‘Songpa Dullegil Comprehensive Guide Map’ installed under the Geoyeogoga Bridge. The comprehensive guide map, which is 23 meters long, provides information on all courses of Songpa Dullegil, major points on each course, and important tourist routes in Songpa-gu.

Songpa-gu explained that this comprehensive guide map has a triple effect. It improves the environment at the Seongnae 4-gyo intersection, provides information to local residents, and with the installation of LED lights, it helps make the underpass of Geoyeogoga Bridge, which is rarely frequented and dark, a safe walking area.

Additionally, directional signboards using wooden photoluminescent paint (which stores light during the day and emits it at night) have been installed so visitors can enjoy the night view while walking along Songpa Dullegil.

Furthermore, you can also see △ comprehensive guideboards that guide the entire Songpa Dullegil, △ course guideboards explaining major points on each course, and △ ground guideboards that help prevent getting lost at forks in the path.

Park Seong-su, Mayor of Songpa-gu, said, “All roads in Songpa lead to Songpa Dullegil,” and added, “We plan to build a secondary guidance system connecting major points in Songpa to Songpa Dullegil so that local residents can truly experience it.”
