Improved scheme on traffic management and public safety, a priority of the City Government


Among the early wins of the present administration are improved traffic condition and cleaner and orderly roads in the City. All throughout the City, an increased number of traffic enforcers are deployed especially along the stretch of Rizal and Magsaysay Streets as well as in vital intersections of Salvador Escudero Highway such as Pangpang, Cabid-an, and Sitio Baribag in Bibincahan. For the motorists and the public, their presence connotes order, security and safety. Constant monitoring to apprehend illegal public land transport or colorum is also being done and streets are being cleared of sidewalk vendors. These changes were driven by the firm resolve of Mayor Ma. Ester E. Hamor to focus on traffic management and to address the escalating traffic congestion not only to minimize inconveniences to road users and the riding public, but more so to avoid road accidents. Traffic management is part of the 10-point Agenda of the City under the Seguridad, Kaayusan, Katranquilohan asin Kauswagan (SK3) Program. Other projects under the SK3 are installation of traffic lights, implementation of new traffic schemes and expansion of CCTV coverage within the City proper.
