Uijeongbu City, Gyeonggi Province (Mayor Kim Dong-geun) announced on the 17th that on the 14th, in preparation for the thawing season, they visited the large-scale apartment construction site ‘The Sharp Uijeongbu Station Link City’ to inspect the progress of the construction and check safety management status.

During the thawing season, ground weakness due to temperature changes increases the risk of construction site accidents such as retaining wall collapse and ground subsidence, making thorough safety inspections and preventive measures necessary.

The project site is a multi-family housing complex within the Camp La Guardia urban development project, consisting of 3 basement floors and 48 above-ground floors. Currently, the framework construction for basement floors 1 to 3 is underway, with completion scheduled for September 2027, when 1,401 households will move in.

Mayor Kim Dong-geun emphasized, “Since the risk of safety accidents at construction sites is high during the thawing season, all site personnel must thoroughly carry out safety inspections and preventive measures. We must prioritize workers’ safety and continuously manage the site to ensure a safe working environment. Additionally, pedestrian pathways frequently used by residents should be regularly inspected and necessary safety measures reinforced to prevent accidents.”

Mayor Kim also requested that there be no setbacks in the progress of public contribution facilities related to the urban development project, such as public offices, cultural parks, and off-street parking lots.
