"On this note, I also want to take this opportunity on the DOTr and other stakeholders to finish this project within the target completion timeline. I think if we in fact start operations [in] December, that will be the best possible Christmas gift that we can give to Cebu..." said Marcos in his message.
With the aim to recalibrate the transportation system in Metro Cebu, President Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr. on Monday called on the Department of Transportation to finish the Cebu Bus Rapid Transit project within the intended timeline.
"On this note, I also want to take this opportunity on the DOTr and other stakeholders to finish this project within the target completion timeline. I think if we in fact start operations [in] December, that will be the best possible Christmas gift that we can give to Cebu..." said Marcos in his message.
Marcos also tasked concerned agencies "to find ways to properly relocate the affected informal settler families." For his part, Transportation Secretary Jaime Bautista said the BRT would be the first mass transit system in Cebu City and the first Bus Rapid Transit in the Philippines, noting that the P16.3 billion project will bring multiple benefits to residents of Metro Cebu.
