The Seoul-type Eco-friendly Construction Site system is a measure introduced by the Seoul Metropolitan Government in 2021 to address dust inevitably generated at large construction sites. It applies strengthened dust suppression standards to manage construction sites more strictly and encourages the voluntary use of low-emission construction machinery at construction sites.


From August 2023 to June of last year, the city conducted an evaluation of the voluntary compliance and participation of eco-friendly construction sites. Contributors who had built achievements in the relevant field for more than one year at excellent construction sites (14 locations) and construction companies (3 companies) were selected and commended.


DL Construction has applied dust suppression standards stronger than the legal requirements at the Dapsimni 17 District redevelopment site to curb dust generation. Additionally, all members participated in dust prevention activities regardless of their duties. In particular, they established a 'Response Plan for Mandatory Low-emission Measures for Aged Construction Machinery' to manage and ensure that only low-emission vehicles operate and are brought into the site.


Furthermore, they implemented ▲a real-name system for construction vehicles on site and conducted on-site training ▲watering of roads around the site more than twice a day ▲real-time fine dust monitoring using the Internet of Things (IoT) ▲operation of an unmanned watering system ▲operation of fine dust adsorption filters.



A DL Construction official said, "It is very meaningful to be recognized for our efforts to create an eco-friendly construction site and to receive the award for two consecutive years at the same site," adding, "We will continue to do our best to ensure that the Seoul-type eco-friendly construction site is established in line with Seoul city policies and that the project is completed safely."
