[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Dongjak-gu (Mayor Changwoo Lee) will operate the public parking lot at Namseong Sagye Market, created last year in the area of 129-9 Sadang-dong, starting from February.


This parking lot development resolves residents' inconvenience caused by illegal parking around the traditional market and enables revitalization of the local commercial district and strengthening of market competitiveness.


Last year, the district was selected in the Ministry of SMEs and Startups' traditional market revitalization contest and invested a total project cost of 8.7 billion KRW (including land acquisition costs) to create a 661㎡ public parking lot with a total of 19 spaces.


Experts and public officials conducted on-site surveys together, collecting opinions from nearby merchants and residents, and designed the plan prioritizing residents' convenience.


The created public parking lot includes ▲general parking spaces (18 cars) ▲a dedicated space for compact cars (1 car), and at the entrance and exit, ▲security lights and parking lot lighting ▲parking control and CCTV surveillance equipment ▲drainage facilities were installed to allow users to use it more safely.


The Dongjak-gu Facilities Management Corporation operates the lot under consignment, and it is available year-round at a rate of 300 KRW per 5 minutes.


Market users can receive one hour of free parking.


For more details, inquiries can be made to the Parking Management Division of Dongjak-gu Office.


Kim Byungseop, head of the Parking Management Division, said, “With this parking lot development, we expect to simultaneously resolve parking difficulties near the traditional market and revitalize the local economy. We will continue to promote customized parking management projects by region to do our best to alleviate residents' inconveniences in daily life.”
