CEBU CITY—The Cebu City Development Council (CCDC) infrastructure committee has approved some P3.5 billion worth of infrastructure projects proposed by the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH)-Cebu City Engineering District for 2015.
The projects include the rehabilitation of Colon Street for P120 million and the widening of Archbishop Reyes Avenue for P128 million.
Also included are the widening of the Bacayan-Pit-os Road for P170 million; and the construction of a flood-mitigation structure along Estero Parian on Colon Street and on Jakosalem Street from Imus Road to Parian Creek at P160 million each.
The DPWH also plans to construct an engineering district building in Barangay Tinago for P30 million and a multipurpose building inside the Vicente Sotto Memorial Medical Center compound in Barangay Sambag II for P25 million.
Projects for the Cebu City south district, on the other hand, include the road right-of-way acquisition in Barangay Basak San Nicolas and the construction of a “depressed intersection” at the N. Bacalso Avenue-F. Llamas Street junction, totaling P400 million.
Some P400 million was proposed to widen the city’s natural waterways and P120 million for dredging of Kinalumsan River and rip-rap installation on its banks.
Other projects include the widening of C. Padilla Street from the Carlock Street intersection to the South Road Properties Access Road for P267 million, the widening of the access road from the V. Rama Avenue junction in Barangay Guadalupe to Doña Modesta Gaisano Street in Barangay Lahug for P210 million, and the stretch of N. Bacalso Avenue, from Santo Tomas de Villanueva parish church to the Bulacao Bridge for P300 million.
All these projects were endorsed to the CCDC full council for its approval.
Upon approval, the proposal would be endorsed to the Cebu City Council, before endorsing it to the Regional Development Council 7, which would either turn it down or endorse it to the national government for funding.
