On November 11, Hongnong Police Box of Yeonggwang Police Station in Jeollanam-do will officially launch the "Hongnong Safety (ZONE) Project Support Program," with over 30 participants including Hanbit Nuclear Power Headquarters, the Hongnong-eup Volunteer Crime Prevention Unit, and the Bluebird Volunteer Group of Yeonggwang General Hospital.

This initiative is part of the "Hanbit Nuclear Power Headquarters Support Program" and focuses on collaboration among various organizations to prevent crime and enhance the sense of safety among local residents. In line with the actual conditions of the region, Hongnong Police Box, during nighttime patrols, identified a total of 25 locations such as intersections and dark village alleyways where solar-powered streetlights were installed. Additionally, fixed sensor warning lights (visual guidance poles) were installed in high-risk traffic accident areas and on safe routes home for children and women, in cooperation with the Hongnong Volunteer Crime Prevention Unit.

With the installation of these facilities, it is expected that the project will make a significant contribution not only to preventing traffic accidents among elderly residents-who make up a high proportion of the population in Hongnong-eup-but also to protecting socially vulnerable groups such as children on their way to and from school.

Yeonggwang Police Station plans to continue implementing customized public safety activities in cooperation with Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power, local governments, and volunteer crime prevention units to ensure the safety of local residents.
