“ANG solusyon sa kakulang sa transportasyon dili lang bahin sa terminal kun dili kinahanglan adunay episyente nga sistema sa pampublikong transportasyon sa Siyudad”.
Kini ang gibutyag ni Konsehal Edgar Cabanlas, majority floor leader, agig reaksyon sa taho ni Konsehal Roger Abaday sa sesyon niadtong Lunes nga gidumala ni Bise Mayor Bebot Rodriguez kabahin sa pagpahigayon og komprehensibong pagtuon sa pagtukod og dugang off-street o satellite transport terminal sa siyudad.
Matod ni Cabanlas nga dili angay tugotan ang pagbutang sa mga terminal sulod sa siyudad, kay problema na pud ang ka-traffic ug aron atong mamentinar nga dili kita makalapas sa orihinal nga katuyoan sa siyudad nga ang westbound taman ra gyud sa Bulua ug ang eastbound taman ra sa Agora.
Gibutyag usab ni Cabanlas nga ang pagbuhat sa off-street terminal dili lang trabaho sa goberno, trabaho pud ni sa mga pribado kay pwede man ang mga pribadong negosyante magbutang gamit ang ilang mga pribadong luna.
Pero wala ko kahibalo kung unsaon nato pag-synchronize nga dili makalapas sa orihinal nga katuyoan, sumpay niya.
Gisugyot ug nagtoo si Konsehal Cabanlas nga mas maayo nga ipadayon ang anaa na sa kasamtangan sa stage planning sa buhatan sa National Economic Development Authority (NEDA) ang giplanong Bus Rapid Transport System ug ang pagpatuman sa Land Transportation Route Plan sa Siyudad.
“Efficient, affordable transport system ang makasulbad sa problema sa kakulang sa sakyanan sa Siyudad,” panapos ni Cabanlas. (RNQ/SP)
