Gwangju City Hall

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Seon-gang] Gwangju Metropolitan City announced on the 4th that the Hanam 3 District urban development project, which plans and systematically develops 610,000㎡ of aging residential areas around Hanam, Heukseok, and Jangdeok-dong in Gwangsan-gu, is progressing smoothly.

The Hanam 3 District urban development project started in August 2013 using the land readjustment method, completed site preparation in February last year, and as of August, urbanization is underway with 164 building permits issued and 75 cases, including Moaelga, receiving occupancy approval.

Additionally, to encourage early settlement of residents and minimize inconvenience, a budget of 40.6 billion KRW has been allocated to Gwangsan-gu to support resident facilities, including a resident complex building (1 basement floor, 5 above-ground floors), two village halls (2 to 3 above-ground floors), 15 parking lots, and sports facilities (1 basement floor, 4 above-ground floors). The resident support project is planned to be completed by 2022.

To provide convenience for disabled people and citizens using public transportation during the Chuseok holiday, installation of safety guidance braille blocks and Bus Information Terminals (BIT) at city bus stops was promptly completed in August. Currently, improvements to the residential environment are underway, including maintenance of stormwater and sewage pipes and various facility repairs such as roads to prevent water pollution and ensure smooth drainage.

Park In-gi, head of the City Urban Maintenance Division, stated, “We will continue to actively improve the living environment to encourage early settlement in Hanam 3 District and do our best to ensure there is no inconvenience to citizens' lives.”
