Seong District Mayor Conducts Emergency Inspection in Wonhyoro 2-dong on the 12th Afternoon, Initiates Rapid Snow Removal Due to Hilly Terrain

[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Seong Jang-hyun, the mayor of Yongsan-gu, visited Wonhyo-ro 2-dong on the afternoon of the 12th to inspect the snow removal work status and shoveled snow together with the staff.

The work took place in the Wonhyo-ro 2-dong area. Wonhyo 2-dong has many hilly terrains, making walking difficult and causing frequent icy road accidents when snow accumulates, requiring prompt snow removal work.

Mayor Seong carefully carried out the work with the staff, inspecting dangerous areas such as around hills and side roads where sunlight does not reach and snow easily freezes.

As heavy snow began around 3 p.m. that day, the district raised the emergency snow removal response to level 2 and immediately deployed a total of about 220 personnel, including district office staff, mobile teams, and sanitation workers, to carry out snow removal operations.

Mayor Seong said, “Last week, heavy snow caused severe damage to residents due to icy road accidents. We will thoroughly manage the entire area with meticulous snow removal work before snow accumulates to prevent any harm to residents and minimize their inconvenience.”
