TAGBILARAN City Mayor Jane Yap led the switching on of lights on the streets along the coastal road of barangays Ubujan and Taloto leading to Penaflor St. during simple ceremonies held on March 14, 2023.
“The City of Tagbilaran continues to install new street lights aimed at improving visibility and safety for both residents and visitors. We are installing modern and energy efficient street lights that generate brighter and longer lasting lights,” Mayor Yap said.
Together with Mayor Yap in the switching on were Chief of Staff John Geesnell L. Yap II, OIC City Engineer Teodoro Estoque and Engr. Felito Francisco, Head of the Electrical Division of the City Engineer’s Office.
With brighter streets, Mayor Yap hopes for added road safety to pedestrians, commuters and drivers, particularly in areas with heavy transportation and foot traffic.
Moreover, Mayor Yap is very optimistic that with brighter streets, there will be a decline, if not, total eradication of criminal elements in society.
LGU Tagbilaran has been strong and fast on its feet with its ongoing street lighting project in the City – a project that is sourced from the 20% Development Fund.
