Welcome to the World news. World news keeps you updated news around the nations.

Today's topic is "Free Wi-Fi, Phone Chargers for Seoul's New Bus Stops"

South Korea's capital, Seoul, is planning to build new bus stops with free Wi-Fi, phone chargers and air cleaners. Seoul's government plans to build 10 of the new "Smart Shelters" by October 2020 in order to test them, before new features are added to bus stops around the city.

The bus stops will have heated chairs, air conditioning and information about how clean the air is inside and outside. They will also offer information on when buses will arrive, and for emergencies, there will be cameras, a bell to call for help, and a defibrillator.

There are three possible designs for the bus stops, and Seoul's government has asked people to vote online for the one they like best. People can vote until June 24th.

Bus stops with some of the features of "Smart Shelters" were already built in 2019. The city called them "Eco-Shelters" and they had plants growing in them to help clean the air, along with air cleaners and information about noise and dust levels.

In 2019, Seoul's government announced plans to offer free Wi-Fi throughout the city by 2022. Most buses in the city now offer free Wi-Fi, and the number of Wi-Fi points in places like parks, parking lots, and other public areas from will increase 7,420 to 23,750.
