Wednesday, August 06, 2008 Talk back: Banilad flyover By Butchoy Sievert III
(The letter is addressed to Bobby Nalzaro)
Traversing the Banilad-Talamban Road in the morning is like walking to Calvary Hill.
Everyday we have to contend with the traffic situation because until now nothing has been happening to the construction of the fly-over except people from DPWH or the contractor "narrowing" the road.
Just a few questions I would like to ask/share to those responsible in coming up with the project: How come you implemented the construction when the lot owners have not agreed yet with the price of their lots affected by the fly-over?
I understand that a thorough study of a project must be discussed first before getting it started.
Didn't the people involved, especially the project engineers, have the subject OPERATIONS RESEARCH in their college days?
Another thing: Just this morning on our way to our respective offices, we passed by P. Remedio St., an access towards AS Fortuna going to Foodland.
The street is in a very sorry state, but passable.
When we reached the junction where PUJs and Talamban-bound vehicles along with other vehicles bound for the city merge, there was no Citom personnel around to man the traffic lanes.
The stretch from Foodland up to Chevrolet in Banilad had only three traffic enforcers.
