Ulsan City has completed the "2023 Address Information Facility Comprehensive Survey" conducted since January this year. This comprehensive survey was prepared to ensure the efficient maintenance of address information facilities and to make them convenient for citizens to use.


The survey targets included 17,680 road nameplates, 103,133 building number plates, 1,698 basic number plates, and 16 address information guide plates, totaling 122,527 items. The survey contents covered whether the facilities were lost or damaged, the appropriateness of the inscriptions, the suitability of the locations, and the visibility status.


The survey results showed that a total of 16,653 facilities (13.6%) required maintenance. By category, there were 4,992 damaged items, 10,152 lost items, 77 with insufficient visibility, 65 with inappropriate installation locations, and 35 with inappropriate inscription contents.


Ulsan City plans to repair or replace the facilities that need maintenance and complete the installation of additional facilities where necessary by November. In addition, for building number plates that have exceeded the 10-year durability period and are severely damaged, residents who wish to have them maintained can apply for reissuance of the building number plates at the relevant district or county office, and replacements will be provided free of charge.



An official from Ulsan City stated, “We plan to regularly survey and maintain address information facilities to help people find their way conveniently and respond quickly in emergency situations.”
