[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Seo Dong-young] Paldal-gu District, Suwon conducted on-site inspections on the 5th of pedestrian overpasses in the district, including the Hyoseong Circular Overpass and the Youth Overpass in front of the Suwon Youth Culture Center.

In particular, the Hyoseong Circular Overpass began construction last year to improve pedestrian mobility by installing an elevator for transportation-disadvantaged users and a canopy, with completion scheduled for April of this year.

Additionally, the district plans to completely replace damaged and aged decking and floor tiles in the Hyoseong Circular Overpass, Youth Overpass, and Yeongdong Bridge by the first half of this year to improve the pedestrian environment for residents.

District head Gwon Chan-ho said, "We will thoroughly inspect pedestrian overpasses in advance, which are used by many students and citizens, and listen carefully to even minor inconveniences such as overpass steps and handrails to create a safe pedestrian environment."
