GOV. Gwendolyn Garcia has called out the Cebu City Government for disrespecting and ignoring the territorial jurisdiction of the Cebu Port Authority (CPA) stipulated under Republic Act (RA) 7621 that created the port authority in 1992.In a press conference at the Provincial Capitol on Monday, April 8, 2024, Garcia said this was the first time that a local government unit (LGU), particularly the chief executive, had done so.She said no LGU, and not even Cebu City’s Office of the Building Official (OBO), had ever questioned CPA’s territorial jurisdiction over all baseports in Cebu and asked for building permits.She said she was shocked when the CPA told her that this was not the first incident that City Hall had instigated against the port authority.In the same press conference, CPA general manager Francisco Comendador III said personnel of the Cebu City Government “forcefully” intruded on CPA premises and fenced the area, temporarily stopping its ongoing wharf extension project at the back of the National Museum of the Philippines Cebu and across the Compania Maritime last April 1.The governor said she spoke to Department of Transportation Secretary Jaime Bautista, who has jurisdiction over the CPA, about the incident and informed him of the Province’s stand on the matter.“If nobody stands up and says, ‘enough is enough,’ then this will go on because this act has been on going and each time will go bolder and more aggressive. The Office of the Mayor has proceeded with impunity because no one has spoken up,” Garcia said. Capitol’s legal consultant Rory Jon Sepulveda said Section 6 of RA 7621 clearly defines the territorial jurisdiction of the CPA that includes the baseport within the navigational waters of the province. Sections 7 and 9 (a) and (f) also authorize the CPA to implement developments within its territorial jurisdiction that will improve the port authority’s services. ImageSepulveda said the Provincial Government intervened to protect the image of Cebu, as the rift between the two parties is hurting the public’s perception of CPA, and might disrupt multimillion-peso economic activities that include the export and import of cargo to and from other domestic and international ports. Due to this, Garcia called upon the City Government to uphold the law and recognize CPA’s authority and jurisdiction over the Cebu baseport. Meanwhile, the CPA warned of legal action against some officials of the Cebu City Government following the latter’s forceful entry and fencing operation on port premises last April 1. Comendador said the CPA is yet to determine what cases to file against some City Hall officials, subject to the deliberation of the Cebu Port Commission, the governing body of the port authority. The target of the upcoming lawsuit will be those officials who partook in and who were behind the April 1 incident, he said.The “intrusion” was spearheaded by the OBO; Prevention, Restoration, Order, Beautification and Enhancement team; City Risk Reduction and Management Office; City Legal Office, and the city administrator. He said the port extension project secured all requirements in terms of procurement, adding that it falls within the Cebu baseport, which is part of the CPA’s jurisdiction. Hence, he said they have the authority to implement developments and improvements and condemn the recent action of City Hall. Last Friday, April 5, the CPA resumed civil works on the New Reinforced Concrete Deck Port Facility (Phase 1) at Berths 31-33 after it removed the fence railings last Wednesday, April 3.The City Government argued it enforced a cease and desist order against the ongoing project as it has not secured the necessary permits, such as building permits from the OBO, which is required by the National Building Code. However, the CPA insisted that the City Government has no jurisdiction over the port authority under its charter and existing laws, hence it did not need to secure a permit or ask the permission of the OBO. / EHP Who introduced soccer in the Philippines? Philippines THE first phase of the Cebu Bus Rapid Transit (CBRT) is estimated to be almost 60 percent complete as of Friday, February 16, 2024, and it is scheduled to be finished by early July 2024.CBRT manager Norvin Imbong confirmed this saying the phase 1 of the project is expected to conclude by early July 2024. Regarding phases 2 and 3, Imbong said they are working on obtaining the necessary approvals to commence the bidding process.Imbong personally conducted an on-site inspection on Friday to assess the progress of ongoing civil works related to the removal and transfer of skywalks affected by the CBRT project. He was accompanied by Councilor Jerry Guardo, chairman of the committee on infrastructure.It was reported that Councilor Nestor Archival expressed doubts about the completion timeline of CBRT following an executive session held to address its delays. On February 7, Archival sponsored a resolution following Councilor James Anthony Cuenco's privilege speech on January 10, 2024, highlighting issues surrounding the CBRT project.In response to being questioned as the sponsor of the executive session, Archival said he was not satisfied with the discussion, emphasizing their aim to expedite the completion of the CBRT. During the executive session, the overall target completion date presented was December 31, 2027.The entire CBRT project spans 35.28 kilometers. Package 1 covers the route from Osmeña Boulevard to Cebu South Bus Terminal, totaling 2.38 kilometers, also known as the "trunkline."Package 2 will encompass the route from South Road Properties, Mambaling, starting from the South Bus Terminal, which marks the end of Phase 1. Meanwhile, Package 2 North will include the route of Escario, Capitol, and Gorordo Avenue, with the entire stretch of Package 2 spanning 10.8 kilometers.Discussing the timelines, Archival said Package 1 was projected to be completed in the first, second, and third quarters of 2023 but faced delays, leading to a revised completion target in the second quarter of 2024. Packages 2 and 3 were slated for parallel completion in the third quarter of 2023.Regarding package 2 civil works, Archival said that it also involves land acquisition works scheduled to commence in the third quarter of 2023 and continue until the second quarter of 2025.

Six individuals are reportedly missing and presumed dead.Gealon urged CCLEC to undertake precautionary measures to avoid a disaster like the one in Baltimore, considering numerous container vessels traverse the Cebu harbor and under the bridge.He said he will formally file these measures through a resolution before the City Council in their next regular session.Design of CCLEXCCLEC, in a statement to SunStar Cebu on Wednesday, March 27, assured the public that Cebu’s third bridge linking the Cebu mainland to Mactan Island, underwent several studies, including a vessel collision analysis, to ensure that it is “safe and structurally stable” considering that it is above the busy Mactan Channel.It said the design of Cebu-Cordova Link Expressway (CCLEX) significantly considered vessel collision, considering its main span crosses the busy waterway in Cebu.“CCLEX’s main bridge has a maximum ship collision capacity of 110 meganewton (or equivalent to an 80,000 deadweight tonnage bulk cargo ship colliding onto the pile cap when traveling at 7.5 knots),” said the CCLEC.CCLEC noted that the height of the main bridge from the sea is 52.50 meters with a width of 260 meters, allowing large vessels to pass safely and securely underneath.The bridge, according to CCLEC, is equipped with a Bridge Management and Monitoring System, which is used to measure and monitor the main bridge’s structure conditions via different sensors including road weather information system. The sensors are used to measure and monitor road weather conditions such as temperature, relative humidity, wind speed, wind direction, rainfall, visibility and atmospheric pressure. The bridge also has stay cable accelerometers which detect fatigue loads, vibrational modes, and natural frequencies, among others. It is equipped with GPS position sensors, which detect displacement between the ends of the main bridge deck, and expansion joint displacement sensors, which are used to measure the accurate position of the relevant components of the main bridge such as the tops of the pylons.Marine signals were installed on the sides of the main bridge deck to serve as a navigational aid for ships going in and out of Cebu’s ports. CCLEX connects Cebu City on the mainland to the town of Cordova on Mactan Island. The first two bridges connect the cities of Mandaue and Lapu-Lapu.Bridge boardMeanwhile, Mactan-Cebu Bridge Management Board (MCBMB) chairperson and Cebu Gov. Gwendolyn Garcia told reporters on Wednesday that the board is focused on establishing a roundabout or rotunda along the intersection of UN Ave. in Mandaue City leading to the Marcelo Fernan Bridge, also colloquially known as the second Cebu–Mactan Bridge. Garcia said the traffic in the intersection sometimes reaches the second bridge during peak hours. The weight of the vehicles might have an impact on the bridge’s load capacity, she said.The rotunda is seen to reduce the stress load to the bridge as it will improve the flow of traffic from the Mactan-Cebu International Airport going to mainland Cebu, she added. The MCBMB is composed of the local government units that touch the three bridges, namely the cities of Cebu, Mandaue, Lapu-Lapu and the town of Cordova.Garcia said the Department of Public Works and Highways is also on the board. The agency’s role is to handle the bridges’ maintenance, she said.In November 1990, mv Sanko Elegance, a Korean-registered vessel, rammed into one of the columns of the Mactan-Mandaue Bridge, or the first bridge, at the height of super typhoon Ruping.The damage forced authorities to close the bridge for more than two months. The bridge at the time was the lone link between Cebu mainland and Mactan Island. It was reopened to light vehicular traffic in January 1991. / JJL, EHP

Six individuals are reportedly missing and presumed dead.Gealon urged CCLEC to undertake precautionary measures to avoid a disaster like the one in Baltimore, considering numerous container vessels traverse the Cebu harbor and under the bridge.He said he will formally file these measures through a resolution before the City Council in their next regular session.Design of CCLEXCCLEC, in a statement to SunStar Cebu on Wednesday, March 27, assured the public that Cebu’s third bridge linking the Cebu mainland to Mactan Island, underwent several studies, including a vessel collision analysis, to ensure that it is “safe and structurally stable” considering that it is above the busy Mactan Channel.It said the design of Cebu-Cordova Link Expressway (CCLEX) significantly considered vessel collision, considering its main span crosses the busy waterway in Cebu.“CCLEX’s main bridge has a maximum ship collision capacity of 110 meganewton (or equivalent to an 80,000 deadweight tonnage bulk cargo ship colliding onto the pile cap when traveling at 7.5 knots),” said the CCLEC.CCLEC noted that the height of the main bridge from the sea is 52.50 meters with a width of 260 meters, allowing large vessels to pass safely and securely underneath.The bridge, according to CCLEC, is equipped with a Bridge Management and Monitoring System, which is used to measure and monitor the main bridge’s structure conditions via different sensors including road weather information system. The sensors are used to measure and monitor road weather conditions such as temperature, relative humidity, wind speed, wind direction, rainfall, visibility and atmospheric pressure. The bridge also has stay cable accelerometers which detect fatigue loads, vibrational modes, and natural frequencies, among others. It is equipped with GPS position sensors, which detect displacement between the ends of the main bridge deck, and expansion joint displacement sensors, which are used to measure the accurate position of the relevant components of the main bridge such as the tops of the pylons.Marine signals were installed on the sides of the main bridge deck to serve as a navigational aid for ships going in and out of Cebu’s ports. CCLEX connects Cebu City on the mainland to the town of Cordova on Mactan Island. The first two bridges connect the cities of Mandaue and Lapu-Lapu.Bridge boardMeanwhile, Mactan-Cebu Bridge Management Board (MCBMB) chairperson and Cebu Gov. Gwendolyn Garcia told reporters on Wednesday that the board is focused on establishing a roundabout or rotunda along the intersection of UN Ave. in Mandaue City leading to the Marcelo Fernan Bridge, also colloquially known as the second Cebu–Mactan Bridge. Garcia said the traffic in the intersection sometimes reaches the second bridge during peak hours. The weight of the vehicles might have an impact on the bridge’s load capacity, she said.The rotunda is seen to reduce the stress load to the bridge as it will improve the flow of traffic from the Mactan-Cebu International Airport going to mainland Cebu, she added. The MCBMB is composed of the local government units that touch the three bridges, namely the cities of Cebu, Mandaue, Lapu-Lapu and the town of Cordova.Garcia said the Department of Public Works and Highways is also on the board. The agency’s role is to handle the bridges’ maintenance, she said.In November 1990, mv Sanko Elegance, a Korean-registered vessel, rammed into one of the columns of the Mactan-Mandaue Bridge, or the first bridge, at the height of super typhoon Ruping.The damage forced authorities to close the bridge for more than two months. The bridge at the time was the lone link between Cebu mainland and Mactan Island. It was reopened to light vehicular traffic in January 1991. / JJL, EHP
