Changwon City to Support Early Retirement of Old Diesel Vehicles and Additional LPG Cargo Trucks
Targeting Grade 5 Emission Diesel Vehicles and Three Types of Road Construction Machinery
[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Seryeong] Changwon City, Gyeongnam Province, will accept additional applications starting from the 3rd for the early retirement of old diesel vehicles and the new purchase support project for LPG 1-ton cargo trucks.
The city has secured a budget of 18.7 billion KRW and aims to support 11,000 early retirements and 675 LPG 1-ton cargo trucks.
Additional applications will be accepted from the 3rd until the project budget is exhausted, and support will be provided by aggregating monthly application numbers.
The early retirement support targets are diesel vehicles classified as emission grade 5 or road-use type 3 construction machinery manufactured before 2005, such as dump trucks, concrete mixers, and concrete pump trucks.
Vehicles must have been continuously registered in Changwon City for at least six months as of the application date, and the vehicle ownership period must also be at least six months.
The LPG 1-ton cargo truck support project is open to vehicle owners who scrap diesel vehicles or road-use type 3 construction machinery and purchase a new LPG 1-ton cargo truck.
Priority support will be given to those who scrap diesel vehicles that meet the early retirement criteria.
Applications can be submitted by visiting the Environmental Policy Division of Changwon City Hall with the application form and required documents, or by sending them via registered mail, referring to the announcement on the Changwon City website under the Notices section.
