[Gyeonggi] Yeoju-si Geoleuncheon Stream Local River Maintenance Project Completed

Gyeonggi-do Province announced that it has completed the river maintenance project by investing 8.5 billion won in the 0.9km section of Geoleuncheon Stream in Gangcheon-myeon, Yeoju-si to prevent flood damage.

In order to increase the ability to prepare for floods, the width of the river, which was 6 to 11 meters, was expanded from 12 to 17 meters, and the embankment road, surrounding access road, and vehicle access road were also maintained to ensure the safety of residents.

At the same time, six bridges that were vulnerable to flood damage were completely reinstalled due to the lack of extra height and space to ensure that they were not flooded in the event of flood.

We will do our best to protect the lives and property of the residents from torrential rain, said Kang Sung-soo, head of the construction bureau in Gyeonggi Province.
