On the 3rd, Buk-gu, Gwangju Metropolitan City announced that it has been selected for the 'Development Restriction Zone Resident Support Project' organized by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, securing 1.13 billion KRW in national funding.
The Development Restriction Zone Resident Support Project is an initiative supported annually by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport since 2001 under the 'Special Measures Act on the Designation and Management of Development Restriction Zones.' It aims to improve residents' quality of life and revitalize the local economy by expanding living infrastructure within development restriction zones.
Buk-gu had a total of three projects selected in this support program: two projects in the living infrastructure sector and one project in the environmental and cultural sector.
First, in the living infrastructure sector, the aging infrastructure maintenance projects include reinforcement of Seokjeo Reservoir in Deokui-dong and installation of village sewage systems in Pyeongchon Village, Chunghyo-dong, receiving 860 million KRW in national funding.
Additionally, in the environmental and cultural sector, the Green Connection Nuri-gil Creation Project was selected, which involves maintenance of an 8.6 km walking trail formed along the ridgeline connecting Gunwangbong and Samgaksan Mountains, as well as installation of rest areas and observation facilities, receiving 270 million KRW in national funding.
The national funds secured by Buk-gu will be actively invested starting next year after the budget allocation process, with the total project cost for the three resident support projects amounting to 1.42 billion KRW including local government funds.
