Yongin City in Gyeonggi Province is installing dedicated motorcycle parking spaces at four public parking lots within the city and will conduct a pilot operation until September.
The locations include ▲Jungang Public Parking Lot in Kimryangjang-dong, Cheoin-gu ▲Giheung Rowing Stadium Affiliated Parking Lot in Gonse-dong, Giheung-gu ▲Pungdeokcheon No. 1 and No. 2 Public Parking Lots in Pungdeokcheon-dong, Suji-gu.
Yongin City utilized idle spaces in these public parking lots to create a total of 15 dedicated motorcycle parking spaces.
Yongin City expects that by parking motorcycles in the designated areas, parking spaces for regular vehicles can be used more efficiently, and a pleasant parking environment will help prevent safety accidents.
Yongin City plans to conduct a citizen satisfaction survey on the dedicated motorcycle parking spaces until September and expand the project to other public parking lots within the city.
A Yongin City official stated, "Motorcycles parked indiscriminately on nearby roads have been causing safety accidents, so we created dedicated parking spaces in public parking lots as a pilot project," adding, "We will actively reflect citizens' opinions and seek effective operational plans."
