Yangsan City in Gyeongnam conducted a joint inspection of the facilities for the Safe Village Project near Mulgeum Elementary School on the 25th, together with the Yangsan Police Station. The project was completed last September.


The area around Mulgeum Elementary School has seen significant improvements in living conditions due to newly built apartment complexes and new road developments. However, areas not included in the development remain underdeveloped, resulting in very low perceived safety among residents and students.


To address this, Yangsan City analyzed students' commuting routes and installed safety facilities such as safety shelters, anti-slip pavement coatings, and yellow carpets featuring characters. In addition, they introduced new initiatives tailored to the site conditions, such as applying supergraphics on old walls, producing project outcomes that resonate with the residents.


The newly installed facilities will have designated management entities to ensure continuous maintenance. Furthermore, resident workshops for maintenance will be held to encourage residents to take the lead in managing these facilities.



A Yangsan City official stated, "The Safe Village Project will not end as a one-time effort but will be supported continuously through residents' voluntary management and the discovery of new projects to make the village an even better place to live."
