This section is a main route used by students commuting between nearby apartment complexes and Gaseu Elementary School. Recently, there has been a steady rise in concerns about vehicle speed and pedestrian safety due to an increase in construction vehicle traffic.


In response, the city consulted with the construction company and decided to install speed bumps to encourage vehicles to slow down. Special consideration was given to sections where student movement is concentrated during commuting hours, with the primary focus on alerting drivers and improving pedestrian safety.


By installing speed bumps directly in front of the construction site's entrance and exit, the city has reduced vehicle speed and reinforced the safety of children on their way to and from school.



Mayor Lee Gwon-jae of Osan City stated, "There must be no safety hazards left unattended on the routes that children use every day," adding, "We will continue to conduct safety inspections and improve facilities, especially around construction sites and within school zones."
