Previously, the city had installed and operated automatic brine spraying devices on major road sections; however, the existing system could only be operated through computers installed on-site, which limited immediate response in emergency situations.


The newly introduced system applies mobile-based remote control technology, allowing staff to operate and manage the brine spraying devices in real time via smartphone, not only from the office but also from outside locations.


This will enable rapid snow removal operations in the event of heavy snowfall or icing, and is expected to significantly contribute to preventing road slip accidents and ensuring citizen safety.



An official from Yangju City stated, "With the establishment of this system, we can enhance both the efficiency and speed of our snow removal response," adding, "We will continue to expand our smart road management system using advanced technology in the future."
