Additionally, the ‘Yangju 1-dong Complex Office Building’ will be a future-oriented complex office building combining administrative, business, and resident welfare facilities located around Yangju Station. The city explained that this construction project is expected to improve administrative work efficiency and resident satisfaction, as well as resolve parking issues that local residents have long experienced.

Furthermore, the ‘Installation of Safety Facilities on Gamaksan Sky Road Deck,’ ‘Deokgye-dong Underground Passage Flood Improvement Project,’ and ‘Replacement of Multipurpose (Crime Prevention) Old CCTV and System’ are projects aimed at ensuring citizens’ safety. Through securing disaster safety project funds this time, the city plans to eliminate concerns about safety accidents among residents and thoroughly prevent them.

We will continue to make every effort to secure budgets through ongoing collaboration, visits, and proposals with related ministries so that various urgent projects and disaster safety projects essential to citizens can proceed without any setbacks.”
