Dongdaemun-gu, Seoul (District Mayor Lee Pil-hyung) announced that it has installed smart shelters equipped with various convenience facilities at four locations: Cheongnyangni Station Plaza, Exit 2 of Cheongnyangni Station, Dongdaemun-gu Office·Exit 3 of Yongdu Station, and Jeonnong-dong’s ‘Flower Garden of Knowledge,’ and will operate them starting from the 1st.


The smart shelters are equipped with heating and cooling systems, air sterilizers, and air purifiers, allowing comfortable use of public transportation even during heatwaves and cold waves. Additionally, for user convenience, digital signage, public Wi-Fi, wired and wireless phone chargers, and priority waiting spaces for wheelchairs are provided.


The digital signage is an electronic display board that shows various real-time information such as bus and subway transportation details, weather information, real-time bus arrival videos, and district administration and daily convenience information.


All systems within the smart shelters can be remotely controlled by the district office through information and communication technology (ICT). CCTV cameras installed outside show real-time videos of buses approaching the stops, and the CCTV and emergency bells installed inside share situations with the integrated CCTV control center to provide a safe public transportation environment.



Lee Pil-hyung, Mayor of Dongdaemun-gu, said, “I hope residents can wait for buses and take a short rest in a warm and comfortable environment,” and added, “We will do our best to gradually increase the number of smart shelters to reduce inconveniences in using public transportation.”
