Yongin City Conducts Safety Inspections at 59 Locations Including Large Outdoor Advertisements

[Asia Economy (Yongin) = Reporter Lee Young-gyu] Yongin City in Gyeonggi Province is set to conduct safety inspections of vulnerable facilities in preparation for heavy rain accompanied by strong winds or typhoons during the summer season.

The inspection targets include 59 locations within the city: 32 buildings with large outdoor advertisements that are at risk of collapse or falling due to strong winds, and 27 outdoor golf practice ranges.

Yongin City has organized a joint inspection team composed of the city’s safety advisory group and staff from the relevant departments to inspect these facilities by the 16th of next month.

The main inspection items are the bolt and nut fastening conditions and welding status of large advertisements and outdoor structures, cracks or deformations in concrete foundations, electrical equipment management, and painting conditions.

The city will immediately correct minor defects on-site based on the inspection results, and for issues requiring more time, it will receive facility improvement plans from the facility managers and take appropriate measures.

A city official emphasized, "We will thoroughly inspect related facilities to prevent safety accidents such as falling or collapse of structures caused by summer disasters and provide a safe urban environment for citizens."
