Gwonseon-gu Conducts Emergency Recovery from Typhoon Damage

Gwonseon-gu, Suwon, swiftly implemented emergency recovery from damage caused by Typhoon Bolaven, the massive Category 15 typhoon, with civil servants from each department and community centers mobilizing efforts.

On the 28th, the typhoon brought extreme winds with gusts reaching 28m/s across the Suwon region, causing damage primarily from wind rather than rainfall. The district conducted recovery work on 42 damaged trees along roadsides and in green spaces, approximately 10 signboards, 3 road facilities, 2 roof damages, and 5 broken windows.

The district also recommended corrective measures to relevant parties for a fence and signboard at an accident-prone LH Corporation construction site in Homae-sil to minimize further damage.

The district's Construction Division conducted advance preparations against the typhoon and thorough inspections of disaster-vulnerable areas. While no significant loss of life or property damage occurred in the district, recovery work proceeded swiftly on already-incurred damages.
