Basic Number Plate for Bicycle Path

[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Gangseo-gu, Seoul (Mayor Noh Hyun-song) has taken active measures to eliminate address blind spots.

The district announced that it has installed 105 basic number plates along four sections of the Han River bicycle paths to ensure the safety of residents using the Han River Park.

The purpose is to create an environment where both cyclists and pedestrians can safely use the Han River Park and to assist in prompt response in case of unexpected accidents.

Basic numbers are assigned at regular intervals along road sections to indicate the location of each point, providing convenient and accurate location information even in areas without nearby buildings.

The Han River riverside walking paths and bicycle paths are popular urban resting spots visited by many residents, but due to the lack of specific buildings to confirm exact locations, it has been difficult to respond quickly to safety accidents involving cyclists and pedestrians.

Accordingly, the district installed basic number plates along four sections of the Han River bicycle paths so that anyone can easily verify their location information.

The bicycle paths with installed basic number plates include four sections: Ara Bicycle South Path, Hangangnam Bicycle Path, Anyangcheon East Bicycle Path, and Anyangcheon West Bicycle Path, spanning a total of 10.66 km with 105 basic number plates installed at 100-meter intervals.

Through this, it is expected that in emergencies, the exact location can be accurately communicated to fire stations and police stations, enabling prompt response.

Additionally, the assigned basic numbers are expected to be reflected and increasingly utilized on internet portal sites and navigation systems in the future.

A district official said, “With the installation of these basic number plates, anyone can easily confirm location information, allowing for swift responses to safety accidents,” and added, “We will continue to strive to establish a comprehensive safety network by preparing various methods of location marking.”

The district has also assigned object addresses to 503 bus stops and 118 small urban parks within the area to eliminate address blind spots.
