Gwangju Nambu Fire Station Conducts Winter Season Fire Truck Passage Training at Traditional Markets

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Jin-hyung] Gwangju Nambu Fire Station (Chief Lee Jeong-ja) conducted a fire truck passage training and campaign on the 22nd, targeting traditional markets vulnerable to winter fires, with the participation of related organizations.

The fire truck passage training is a fire lane securing drill at traditional markets (Mudeung Market and Bongseon Market), conducted at least once a month to foster a fire prevention atmosphere and improve citizens' safety culture.

The training on this day involved related organizations (fire department, district office, police) and included ▲ promoting the obligation to yield and priority passage rules for fire trucks in the training section ▲ crackdowns and guidance on illegal parking around traditional markets ▲ education on the use of visible fire extinguishers and emergency fire-fighting devices.

Go Jung-hyun, head of the 119 Disaster Response Team, urged the traditional market merchants' association officials to voluntarily participate and spread safety culture by placing fire extinguishers and strengthening patrols by voluntary fire brigades when handling fire, as the risk of fire is high in winter.
