[Suwon Ilbo=Park Chan-hyuk Reporter] Osan City announced on the 10th that it has installed 'city boundary informational signage (welcome signs)' at major entry points to the city boundary in order to enhance the first impression of the city and effectively communicate the city's image even at night.

This project was undertaken to convey the city's identity and a message of welcome to citizens and visitors coming to Osan, and to improve the environment at the city's entry points.

They have been positioned along major roads where both vehicles and pedestrians can easily notice them.

Lighting has been applied to these facilities to enhance visibility even at night. It is expected that these will convey a bright and approachable city image to those visiting Osan.

On the 6th, Mayor Lee Gwon-jae visited the site in person to inspect the installation status and lighting effects, and confirmed facility management and public safety matters.
