The Seoul city government said on the 9th it will expand, by three times this year, the scope of the on-site "expedited construction progress meetings" that were piloted at 46 project zones across 10 Moa Town initiative sites last year to support the rapid promotion of the Moa Housing and Moa Town projects.
The on-site expedited construction progress meetings are an administrative support program in which the Seoul city government visits district offices to diagnose factors delaying progress and propose solutions, a key execution task of the Moa Housing activation plan released in August last year.
Starting with Seongsan-dong in Mapo District on the 6th, the Seoul city government plans to hold on-site expedited construction progress meetings at 128 project zones across 31 Moa Town initiative sites in 15 districts through May 22. Through meetings and consultations, it plans to focus administrative capacity on preventing delays, mediating conflicts, clearing bottlenecks, and shortening the project period from 11 years to 9 years.
Myeong No-jun, Seoul City's director of architectural planning, said, "Because project bottlenecks ultimately lead to delays and trigger further conflict, the Seoul city government decided to expand the expedited construction progress meetings to proactively diagnose and resolve problems," adding, "To shorten the Moa Housing project timeline, we will provide multifaceted support, including tailored expert consultations and administrative assistance."
