205 Glow-in-the-Dark Building Number Plates Installed on Street Vendors in Nowon-gu

Assigning Photoluminescent Building Number Plates to Street Vendors to Eliminate Blind Spots in Road Name Address Location Information... Street Vendor Small Business Owners Can Receive Mail and Parcels at Their Stores... Enables Rapid Response in Emergencies Such as Fires

[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Nowon-gu (District Mayor Oh Seung-rok) will install photoluminescent building number plates at 205 street vendor locations assigned road name addresses by October this year.

The photoluminescent number plates measure 260mm in width and 215mm in height with a blue background, and emit light absorbed during the day at night, making them identifiable even in the dark.

This project aims to resolve inconveniences caused by street vendors using nearby building addresses when receiving mail or delivery items, as they are located in places other than buildings.

Street vendors refer to shoe repair stands, street snack shops, and similar businesses operating on the road. Although they are small business owners operating with road occupancy permits and business registration, they have faced significant inconvenience because they could not indicate their main business address during business registration or reporting.

The district expects that attaching these building number plates will greatly reduce the inconveniences faced by small business owners operating street vendors.

Additionally, in emergencies such as fires or crimes, accurately conveying the location to fire stations, police stations, and hospitals will enable prompt dispatch and response, greatly enhancing the safety of district residents.

Going forward, the district plans to attach address plates in road name address format at taxi stands, outdoor earthquake shelters, parks, and other locations to improve the convenience of using road name addresses and reduce user inconvenience.

District Mayor Oh Seung-rok stated, “We will continue to discover various projects, including expanding the object address plate project, so that citizens can use road name addresses easily and conveniently.”
