[Asia Economy Reporter Ra Young-cheol] Goyang City, Gyeonggi Province, is promoting the 'Support Project for Conversion to LPG Vehicles for Children's School Transportation' to protect children's health and reduce fine dust.

Goyang City announced on the 11th, "A total of 70 vehicles will be selected on a first-come, first-served basis, and a subsidy of 7 million KRW per vehicle will be provided."

The support targets are owners of diesel vehicles registered in Goyang City as the address on the school bus registration certificate or owners who purchase a new LPG children's school transportation vehicle after scrapping an old LPG vehicle.

The eligible vehicles are new LPG small passenger vans with 9 to 15 seats for children's school transportation, and co-owners are also eligible if at least one person meets the conditions.

Especially this year, a special provision has been established allowing subsidy applications for purchasing new LPG children's school transportation vehicles regardless of whether the vehicle was scrapped by the end of 2021.

Additionally, applicants can apply if they have scrapped and deregistered a vehicle or contracted or registered the purchase of a new vehicle within two months prior to the subsidy recipient selection. Selection is on a first-come, first-served basis and will close when the budget is exhausted.

Application documents and eligibility verification can be found on the Goyang City website (www.goyang.go.kr) under the Notices and Announcements menu. Prepare the required documents and submit them by visiting the Climate and Air Quality Department's Air Response Team at Goyang City Hall or by mail.
