Yangju City Hall

[Asia Economy Reporter Ra Young-cheol] Yangju City in Gyeonggi Province will support the conversion of children's school commute vehicles to LPG vehicles this year to expand the supply of LPG vehicles for children's school commute.

According to the city on the 17th, a total of 35 vehicles, 10 more than the amount supported last year, have been secured, and a subsidy of 7 million KRW per vehicle will be provided.

Owners of children's school commute vehicles who intend to scrap diesel vehicles registered in Yangju City and purchase new LPG vehicles (between 9 and 15 seats) for the same purpose are eligible for support.

This applies to alternative schools, foreign schools, welfare facilities for the disabled, and other newly added reporting facilities under the amended Road Traffic Act, as well as facilities previously required to report children's school commute vehicles but currently without such vehicles.

Additionally, applicants can apply if they have deregistered a scrapped vehicle within two months prior to the subsidy recipient selection and have contracted or registered the purchase of a new vehicle.

Under special provisions, subsidies can be received for purchasing new LPG vehicles for children's school commute regardless of whether the diesel vehicle has been scrapped.

If there are many applicants, selection will be made based on priority criteria, excluding those who have received support for installing emission reduction devices on old diesel vehicles within two years or children's school commute vehicles of directly managed national or public facilities.
