[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Guro-gu (Mayor Lee Sung) has completed the signboard improvement project in the area of Jungang-ro, Gocheok-dong.


Guro-gu stated, "To ensure pedestrian safety and create a pleasant street environment, we carried out an improvement project for signboards in a section of Jungang-ro in the semi-industrial area of Gocheok-dong, which was recently completed."


The project, which began in April last year, targeted 31 buildings and 154 stores along a 1.9 km two-way section from Jungang-ro 6 (Gosan Elementary School) to the Gocheok-dong intersection.


Guro-gu invested a total budget of approximately 330 million KRW, providing up to 2.5 million KRW per store for signboard production and installation costs.


The new signboards were made as LED wall-mounted signs that meet permit standards and have high energy efficiency. Signboards of 147 businesses, including horizontal, small protruding, and combined types, were replaced, and the removal of seven signboards posing safety risks such as ownerless signs, protruding signs, and pole signs was also carried out.


Since 2008, starting with the Guro Digital Complex area, Guro-gu has been steadily conducting signboard maintenance projects along major roads. By organizing indiscriminately scattered outdoor advertisements, the visibility of signboards has been improved. Replacement costs were supported for small business owners to reduce their economic burden.



A Guro-gu official said, "The urban landscape has become much cleaner through this signboard improvement project," and added, "We will continue to do our best to maintain a clean street environment in the future."
