THE Zamboanga City Hall convened on Saturday the transport groups and tackled traffic measures intended to help solve the aggravating traffic problem in this city’s urban center.
City administrator Angelique Go, Councilor Josephine Pareja, and the Traffic Police section talked with the Drivers’ Federation and other public transport associations with the ongoing traffic schemes as the main agenda.
The talk is in line with Mayor Maria Isabelle Climaco-Salazar’s directive for the departments and agencies concerned to continuously initiate moves to resolve the traffic situation in the city.
The local police is implementing the truck ban and the extended scheme on the temporary transfer of terminals of public utility jeepneys and utility vans and rerouting traffic.
Go said these are all subjects of executive orders issued by the mayor.
Go said the dialogue has to be conducted to hear the issues and concerns of the transport sector as well as commuters, vis-à-vis the executive orders in effect right now.
