Gwangjin-gu Supports Installation of Customized Ramps for Small-Scale Facilities to Improve Convenience for Mobility-Restricted Individuals
Free Production and Installation of Customized Ramps for Small Businesses such as Convenience Stores, Pharmacies, Restaurants, and Cafes
A Total of 143 Ramps Installed Last Year... Additional Ramps to be Supported at Around 50 Locations This Year, with Free Repair Service Provided for Three Years
Applications Available Until September 27 at Gwangjin-gu Disability Convenience Promotion Technical Support Center
Gwangjin-gu (Mayor Kim Kyung-ho) is supporting the installation of customized ramps at small-scale, community-based businesses to enhance convenience for mobility-restricted individuals.
Since last year, the district has been promoting a ramp installation support project to enable easier access to small-scale daily convenience facilities such as convenience stores, pharmacies, restaurants, and cafes.
A total of 143 ramps were installed last year, and this year, ramps will be additionally installed at around 50 locations.
The installation targets are small-scale community-based businesses with a total floor area of 300㎡ or less, and customized ramps worth approximately 700,000 KRW are produced and provided free of charge.
It is expected that accessibility will improve for wheelchair users, seniors, pregnant women, and other mobility-restricted individuals who previously had difficulty due to high thresholds or stairs at entrances.
Businesses wishing to apply can contact the Gwangjin-gu Disability Convenience Promotion Technical Support Center by September 27.
After installation, the district plans to focus on facility maintenance through a ‘business owner satisfaction survey’ and by providing ‘free repair services for three years.’
