2023-195, which prohibits tricycles and pedicabs from operating along national highways, Mayor Jesus S. Dureza, Jr. I initiated an urgent mobility solution for the residents of Hagonoy.

At exactly 5:00 AM, two DASUTRANSCO buses were deployed from Lapulabao Public Market to Digos City, providing safe and reliable transportation for students and workers commuting between the two areas. Among the early passengers were educators Mrs. Rojo and Mrs. Coronado, who expressed appreciation for the timely support.

This proactive measure aims to ease the burden on affected commuters while the local government continues to explore long-term solutions for tricycle and pedicab operators impacted by the directive.

The Municipal Mayor’s Office remains committed to ensuring accessible transportation and maintaining public welfare amid evolving regulations.
