Busan Urban Corporation Expands Replacement of Old Drainpipes in Aging Public Rental Apartments for Environmental Improvement
Improving Residents' Quality of Life Through Replacement of Firefighting Pipes and Elevators
Busan Metropolitan Corporation (BMC) is carrying out replacement work on underground wastewater pipes in the basement levels of Bugok, Hakjang 1, and Dongsam 1 districts' old public rental apartments, which are managed by the corporation, to improve the quality of life for residents.
This project was initiated to resolve the inconvenience experienced by residents due to the aging of rental apartment facilities that have been in use for over 30 years since completion.
In particular, frequent issues such as corrosion and blockages have occurred due to the long-term use of the currently installed cast iron wastewater pipes, making facility management difficult.
To address these problems, BMC has adjusted its long-term repair plan for rental housing, expanded the target areas, and will begin construction this month for four months in the three districts.
The newly installed PVC wastewater pipes are lighter, more resistant to corrosion, and have excellent cuttability compared to cast iron, making them easier to manage. Resident satisfaction is expected to greatly improve after completion.
In addition to the wastewater pipe replacement, BMC plans to carry out various projects to improve facilities in aging public rental apartments, such as replacing fire extinguishing pipes, elevator replacement, and exterior wall painting, to enhance residential welfare for citizens.
