CDO Exec Praise Cong. Rodriguez As P29M Twin Road Projects Start. by Ian A. Fuentes/ City Information Office

Cagayan de Oro City Mayor Constantino G. Jaraula and Vice Mayor Vicente Y. Emano praised 2nd District Representative Rufus Rodgriguez for his commendable efforts in lobbying for the release of the P29 Million worth of twin road concreting projects in the city’s main street.
The city’s top two executives graced this morning’s separate groundbreaking and capsule laying ceremonies for the P15-million road concreting of Don Apolinar Velez Street (Provincial Capitol section) and another P14-million for the concreting of Dolores section on the other end.

Mayor Jaraula and Vice Mayor Emano conveyed similar words of thanks and praises to Congressman Rodriguez’s efforts for the implementation of the two road concreting projects funded by the Department Public Works and Highways (DPWH). “Ang dakbayan sa Cagayan de Oro mapasalamaton kaayo sa mga paningkamot ni Cong. Rodriguez aron mapatuman kini nga dakong proyekto,” Mayor Jaraula said. Though the city government wants to improve the condition of the city’s main downtown street, Mayor Jaraula pointed out that the city could not do so because Velez Street is categorized not as a city road, but as a national road.

For his part, Vice Mayor Emano stressed that the road concreting projects will definitely spur the rapid progress and development of Cagayan de Oro City, as well as boost its image as one of the country’s top investment and tourism destinations. “Kini nga proyekto seguradong makahatag og dugang kalamboan sa dakbayan ug busa dako ang among pasalamat kang Cong. Rodriguez tungod niini,” the vice mayor said during the press conference held shortly after groundbreaking rites.

Completion for the concreting of the four-lane, Velez Street, equipped with drainage system and 32 manhole units, is set on June 13, 2008 or within the mandated construction period of 120 calendar days.

In order not to cause undue inconveniences and hassles to the commuters and motorists, Roads and Traffic Administration (RTA) head Ret. Gen. Filipino Amoguis assured that a re-routing plan, one-way traffic system and deployment of additional traffic enforcers has been laid out for the purpose.
