Uijeongbu City Implements 'Chuseok Holiday Comprehensive Measures'

Uijeongbu City (Mayor An Byeong-yong) is preparing and implementing "Chuseok Holiday Comprehensive Measures" to mark the Chuseok holiday. In particular, in preparation for a ten-day extended holiday, the city will make its best efforts to ensure that returnees and citizens can spend a safe and comfortable holiday by implementing joint operations at the comprehensive situation room and expanding the roster of personnel on duty.

The comprehensive situation room will be operated for 10 days from September 30 to October 9, with 327 personnel across 17 sectors maintaining an emergency duty system at an average of 28-34 people per day.

In particular, through pre-checks and emergency duty in each sector closely related to the livelihood of ordinary citizens—including △garbage disposal △water and sewage △transportation △cemetery visitation support △civil service applications—the city plans to minimize inconvenience to citizens due to administrative gaps and actively address various civil complaints.

Additionally, four emergency medical institutions, 155 on-duty medical institutions, and 125 holiday pharmacies have been designated and operated, and the city is actively promoting public information through the Uijeongbu City Hall website and smartphone apps.

During the holiday period, residential waste collection will proceed normally on October 2, 5, and 8 for three days, and on-site duty will be implemented at public cemeteries from October 3 to 5 for three days to minimize inconvenience to cemetery visitors.

Furthermore, the Disaster Comprehensive Situation Room will continue to operate for disaster and accident prevention and response, and a phased duty posture will be established.

Mayor An Byeong-yong of Uijeongbu City stated, "Facing the extended Chuseok holiday, all staff will do their utmost centered on the comprehensive situation room to make it a safe and abundant Chuseok for all citizens."
