Gwangjin-gu, Illegal Parking CCTV Enforcement Text Alert Service
Advance Text Alerts for Illegal Parking in Fixed CCTV Zones to Encourage Voluntary Vehicle Relocation
Anyone Driving in the Area Can Register Regardless of Residence... Over 170,000 Applications Last Year... Note: Text Alerts Limited in Mobile CCTV and Crosswalk Enforcement Zones
Gwangjin-gu (District Mayor Kim Kyung-ho) is implementing the ‘Illegal Parking CCTV Enforcement Text Alert Service’ that notifies drivers parked in illegal parking enforcement zones of their violation.
The text alert service was introduced in 2013 to prevent cases where drivers repeatedly get fined because they were unaware of the parking enforcement zones, encouraging voluntary vehicle movement to secure smooth traffic flow. As of 2023, a total of 173,114 people have applied for the service.
The service area covers 65 locations equipped with fixed CCTV cameras. When a vehicle is parked illegally, the driver receives a real-time text message notifying them of the enforcement zone. Enforcement occurs 10 minutes after the alert message is sent. However, the text alert service is limited in on-site enforcement areas such as crosswalks and sidewalks, as well as zones monitored by mobile CCTV.
Any vehicle owner driving in Gwangjin-gu can subscribe regardless of their residence. Only one phone number per vehicle can be registered, and after subscribing, users will receive alerts for newly added parking enforcement areas without additional applications.
The service can be applied for free through the ‘Parking Enforcement Text Alert Service Website’ or the ‘Parking Enforcement Alert’ and ‘Whistle’ mobile apps. For those who find online application difficult, visits to the Gwangjin-gu Office Traffic Guidance Division or nearby community service centers are also possible.
