Yeongdeungpo-gu to Maintain Underground Passage Rainwater Facilities Through Next Month 3rd

[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Seo Dong-young] Yeongdeungpo-gu has been maintaining rainwater treatment facilities from the 17th through the 3rd of next month to prevent flooding damage to underground passages and pedestrian tunnels caused by heavy rainfall.

This maintenance aims to prevent flooding in underground passages caused by sediment and foreign materials in the rainwater treatment facilities and to prevent traffic accidents for vehicles and pedestrians.

Starting with dredging work on Jingogae Tunnel on the 17th, the district is conducting dredging and cleaning operations on nine underground passages including Beopwon Underground Passage and Woncheon Underground Passage, as well as one underground pedestrian passage at Maewon, removing sediment and foreign materials accumulated over winter. Construction information signs and banners have been installed to minimize inconvenience to residents.

Song Young-wan, Head of Yeongdeungpo-gu Office, said, "We will make efforts to secure a road environment and living space where residents can travel with peace of mind."
