On the 17th, Seosan City in Chungnam announced that it has delivered four Carnival vehicles, designated as special transportation vehicles, to the Seosan City Transportation Support Center for the Mobility-Impaired, in order to strengthen the mobility rights and improve the convenience of transportation-vulnerable citizens.
