[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Yongsan District Mayor Seong Jang-hyun participated in the 'Children's Traffic Safety Relay Challenge' on the 15th at his office.

This campaign aims to establish a culture of practicing traffic safety in children's protection zones and to build a nationwide consensus for preventing traffic accidents.

Mayor Seong, who was nominated by Yeongdong County Mayor Park Se-bok, posed holding a sign that read "Stop at 1, Look both ways at 2, Wait for 3 seconds, Prevent 4 dangers."

He nominated Seo Dae-seok, Gwangju Seo District Mayor, Han Beom-deok, Cheongju Mayor, and Yoo Cheon-ho, Ganghwa County Mayor, as the next participants in the campaign.

Yongsan District Mayor Seong Jang-hyun said, "Traffic accidents involving children continue to occur due to adults' carelessness," and urged, "Please reduce speed as much as possible in school zones and pay extra attention."

As part of the 7th local government mayor's pledge projects, the district newly installed a yellow carpet (child eye-level crosswalk waiting area) last year from the main gate of Geumyang Elementary School to the station section in front of Hyochang Park.

Additionally, ten signal and speeding unmanned enforcement cameras were installed in children's protection zones to ensure child safety.

This year, the district plans to prevent children's traffic accidents through visiting traffic safety education for preschool children (kindergarten, daycare), expanding signal and speeding unmanned enforcement cameras (12 units), and adding two block-type yellow carpets.
