Gyeongnam Police Agency Field Study Group Solomon Research Project, 'Nationwide Best'

Four research projects conducted by the Gyeongnam Police Agency's field study group, Gyeongnam Traffic Facilities Solomon, were selected as the 'Best National Learning Projects' hosted by the National Police Agency.

According to the provincial police agency on the 19th, the selected research projects are ▲Creating checklists for various field inspections such as child protection zones ▲Analyzing the effect of accident reduction following the installation of traffic signal backplates ▲Expanding diagonal crosswalks within protection zones ▲Exploring difficulties and alternative methods related to the National Petition System.

Solomon consists of 46 members, including traffic safety facility officers belonging to the provincial police agency and traffic-related experts.

It was established to enhance the capabilities of its members through self-directed research and exchanges with traffic specialized institutions, and to contribute to the prevention of traffic accidents by improving the traffic environment suited to the conditions of the Gyeongnam region.

The group is divided into four regions: East, West, Central, and South, conducting activities to listen to inconveniences and difficulties in the field and propose solutions.
