Jangan District Completes Pilot Installation of Safety Lights in Cheoncheon Food Town

[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Jung Jun-sung] Jangan District in Suwon announced on the 20th that it has completed a pilot installation of safety lights in the Cheoncheon Food Town area to improve the nighttime pedestrian environment and prevent crime.

Safety lights are installed on the external walls of buildings in underground cable areas where street lamps are difficult to install, and serve as night road lighting along with street lamps and security lights.

Through this project, safety lights have been installed at 11 buildings around Cheoncheon-dong 503-2. Moving forward, the district plans to expand the safety light installation area to cover the entire food town in cooperation with merchant associations and residents.

A district official said, "We hope that safety lights, which brightly illuminate dark alleyways, will provide a safe pedestrian environment for local residents while also helping to revitalize the local commercial district, which has been sluggish due to COVID-19."
