‘Safe School Route’ What Is Your Name?… Busan Office of Education Holds Naming Contest for School Commute Safety Map System

Building Consensus on School Route Safety

“Informing Purpose and Function, Making It Friendly”

Name the system that creates safe routes to school!

Busan Metropolitan Office of Education (Superintendent Ha Yoon-soo) announced on the 19th that it is launching a naming contest for the "Busan School Commute Safety Map System," which is being developed to create safe school routes near elementary schools and prevent safety accidents.

This system will be developed as a responsive web-based mobile map and is scheduled to open in March. It provides real-time information on safe school routes based on the current location and allows users to easily identify traffic safety facilities and hazardous areas around the routes. Additionally, anyone can register safety opinions about dangerous areas.

The Busan Office of Education is conducting this contest to build consensus among the educational community and Busan citizens on creating safe school routes and to come up with a name that clearly and familiarly reflects the system’s purpose and functions.

Those who wish to participate can submit names via the QR code or online link provided in the announcement from the 22nd to the 29th. Students, parents, teachers, and citizens are all welcome to participate, and selected winners will receive gift certificates as prizes.

Kim Jang-hoon, Director of School Safety at the Busan Office of Education, said, “The School Commute Safety Map System, which identifies risk factors on school routes, can be immediately improved through sharing with related organizations,” and encouraged many to participate in the contest.
