Seoul Jungbu Police Station, Complete Replacement of School Zone Protective Fences

The Jungbu Police Station in Seoul announced on the 2nd that it has completely replaced the aging protective fences within school zones, including Sindang Elementary School, in collaboration with local governments to create safe routes for children to go to and from school.

Protective fences are facilities installed to ensure pedestrian safety by preventing jaywalking, and the yellow design-type fences are known to have a positive effect on preventing child traffic accidents as they allow drivers to easily recognize the school zone.

In accordance with the revised Road Traffic Act Enforcement Regulations, the Jungbu Police Station plans to continue improving facilities by installing yellow crosswalks and road markings at the start and end points of protection zones within school zones, expanding unmanned enforcement equipment, and increasing the installation of protective fences.

Choi Eun-jung, Chief of the Seoul Jungbu Police Station, said, "We will work to create safe school zones where children come first and foster happy routes to and from school through continuous inspection and improvement of traffic facilities in collaboration with local governments," adding, "We will continue to actively work to reduce child safety accidents with the mindset that the safety and happiness of children are the responsibility of adults."
