The Barangay Council of Bugo was asked to revise its proposed ordinance on nighttime heavy vehicle restrictions after the committee on barangay affairs considered the recommendations of the City Legal Office and the Roads and Traffic Administration (RTA).
The proposed measure seeks to address residents' concerns over the frequent passage of heavy vehicles through subdivision roads at night, which has reportedly caused excessive noise, increased safety risks, and disruption.
In its legal opinion, the CLO said that regulating traffic, including restricting the passage of heavy vehicles through subdivision areas during nighttime, falls within the authority of the city government.
Meanwhile, the RTA raised no objection to the said proposal but recommended several revisions to align it with existing traffic regulations.
It pointed out that heavy vehicles should be classified according to gross vehicle weight exceeding 4,500 kilograms, as provided under Section 97 of the City’s Traffic Code, instead of using the number of wheels as the basis for regulation.
The RTA likewise found that the provisions on the suspension and revocation of operational permits are too broad to be effectively enforced and recommended that fines be imposed on both the driver and the vehicle operator to strengthen accountability.
The truck ban should also be enforced daily from 8:00 p.m. to 5:00 a.m., except during emergencies as provided in the ordinance, the office further remarked. (JAO/SP)
ANOTHER socialized housing project will soon rise in Barangay Camaman-an.
This, after the 21st City Council during its regular session presided over by Presiding Officer Pro Tempore Councilor Roger G. Abaday, approved the Preliminary Subdivision and Development Plan (PSDP) application of the Consolacion Homeowners Association, Inc. (CONHAI).
The approved project covers an area of 7,063 square meters, containing 67 lots.
The proposed project aims to provide housing needs and address the growing demand for affordable housing units to the community.
The approval of the subdivision, however, is subject to the compliance of the conditions imposed by the City Housing and Urban Development Department (CHUDD), Office of the City Planning and Development Coordinator, and City Engineering Office.
The committees on subdivision, housing development, and landed estate, and on laws and rules both chaired by Councilor Edgar S. Cabanlas reviewed and favorably endorsed the said PSDP. (JBD/SP)
