at the time na fully operational na ang BRT,managhan sad ang mugamit ug bike especially kanang Folding Bikes,kalami i-negosyo kung daghan mamalit.Kining grupo namo na Cebu Folding Bike (http://www.facebook.com/cebufoldingbikesociety),suporta tawn mi aning BRT kay hinaot maapil ang bicycle lanes sa kadalanan.Last Friday night ride namo,ni-donate si Joel Lee (Movement for Livable Cebu) ug Ice Cream namo para isuwa sa pan ug sotanghon nga pwerteng inita.Nikuyog sad siya sa among ride gamit ang iyang electric car.Paghuman namog pangao-on,niabot lang kalit si Mayor Rama kay nahibung nganong daghan bike,siya ang nitilok sa Ice Cream ug sotanghon kay uwahi naman ni-abot. :lol:

^^ di pud wui, may lang ug 24 hours ang BRT, kay
unsaon na lang ning mga noctural nga taw labi na sabado, daghan jud nocturnal diha sa mango, di na kaaford mag taxi...:lol:..

hopefully that will also be address esp na daghan call centers dinhi. Dili pwede na operational ra ang BRT from a certain period of time during the day, dapat open 24/7 gyud ang BRT and employees should be working on an 8hr shifting basis para maservice gyud tanan.

aw mas maayo gyud nga 24/7 jud ang BRT para pud sa safety sa atong mga katawhan, :)

^^ i hope naa Civilian Police sa each Bus...i remember kadtong Kaohsiung Bus sa-una,
naa man 'to Civilian Police na-assigned each Bus... :D

BISIKLETA ang sumpay sa imo biyahe sa BRT...magbutang ug bike station kada hununganan sa bus.Tagaan ug kaugalingon nga dalan para sa mga siklesta. Uso na man kaha karon ang PPI sa atoa..ang intresado nga mga pribadong kompanya maoy mogama ug momintinar sa mga bisikleta. Bisan asa sa ciudad pwede nimo dalhon ang bisikleta basta imo kini i-uli sa sa labing duol nga bike station duol sa imo destinasyon. Makaminos gyud ang publiko sa gastohan sa plete pagkahuman niya ug sakay ug BRT kay di na mosakay ug jeepney. Mo-renta lang sya ug bisikleta padung skwela o trabaho. Gibuhat na kini sa ubang nasud haom kaayo ni para sa mga sugbuanon. Mahimo siguro ta nga pinaka GREEN CITY sa pinas.

Sugyot lamang kini. Salamat

^^ problema ani bay kay di tanan taw kabalo mobike...

Simple ra kaayo kun di kamao mo bike bai Joch..mosakay ug dyip o maglakaw. Di man pod mahitabo nga wagtangon ang dyipney kay unsaon na lang ang panginabuhi sa mga drayber.

security-wise indot siya nga sugyot
pero dili kaha subra ra pod ka overhead?

kung tsiktohon lang jud cguro ang entry point sa kada station
sa ako lang murag dili na cguro kinahanglan ug police each bus:)

^^Bai Baka, i still remember na-mention to sa una ang bahin consultation with the affected transport group...Basin kato'ng na-interview nga driver, kay bag-o to siya nga driver... :)


Regarding ana'ng lakaw, kita bitaw sa Pinas, hilig kaayo ta anang door to door nga klase sa pag-commute. Mao nang ning-exist nang trisikad, tungod ana.

Sa uban lugar, with better urban transport system, ang mga tawo molakaw gud og maski usa ka kilometro para moadto sa station...Tungod ani, nakita sa gobyerno ang need sa pagpanindot sa sidewalk, with matching trees.

Sa una bitaw, nag eskwela pa ko, lakawon ra na namo sa ako mga amigo ang gikan sa USC-TC padulong sa Country Mall, gawas lang kung mag-uwan o magdali.

Mao gyud bai. Basin newbie to gna driver. Hehe. Pero as it stands, I think and I believe naa pa ni sila daghan consultations in the near future.

ang mga tapulanluoy gyud kaayu inig sugod sa BRT. ako lang ma compare mga Singaporeans mga tiguwang gani didto manglakaw man gani unya magbarog sa bus kung occupied na mga reserved seats sa bus. maconpare lang gyud nino unsa ka mga tapulan mga pinoy mao dugay moasenso. sa Manila samot pa gyud ka tapulan mga tawo didto ky bisan pirti duola mag tricycle mao maka cause sa traffic gasto pa gyud kaayu sa pliti.

maayo unta naa say express bus sa BRT like kanang few stops ra ba, di tanang bus stops hunongan bahala medyo mahal2x iya pliti compared sa ordinary para sa mga nagdali.

lamia na nya e drive inig 2020 nga halos naa nay BRT tibook Sugbo kay minos2x na traffic.

Wala pa nigawas ang service plan, pero I predict, ug nahisgutan man pod to ni Sir Zid sa una, nga possible kaayo na ang express nga buses, especially maybe during the rush hours, or spaced out a bit less frequent compared to the normal buses.

Kana ako gibold bai, sorry but I hope that many people would not think like you. Tingali og motor ra, ok ra siguro, pero the best response from the public that I hope would happen would be : Aw dili na diay kinahanglan pa muggamit ug awto (at least kung dili gyud kinahanglan) kay mas dali man diay mugamit na lang sa BRT!

Imagine yourself multiplied by thousands, and we are back to square 1. Haha. Wala lang gihapon naimprove ang traffic kay abi man sa tanan nga mas hayahay na mag drive ug mamalit na nuon ang kadaghanan og awto:lol:.

BISIKLETA ang sumpay sa imo biyahe sa BRT...magbutang ug bike station kada hununganan sa bus.Tagaan ug kaugalingon nga dalan para sa mga siklesta.

Exactly bai! That would be the ideal case. But there are several challenges here, but at the same time, they are business opportunities. First, the monitoring of bicycles. Sorry to say, but as of now, we have a strong culture of thievery (which I really hope will change). Bisan pa usahay nakakandado na imo bike, basta imo na biyaan bisag asa, peligro nas kawat. But as you said, there is the opportunity of providing rental bikes if we can find a creative way around this security problem.

Another way would be for the BRT system itself to provide a guarded bicycle parking facility near the stations, which of course can pay for itself from the user fees.

I also hope that the bus design would accommodate bicycles ( even if the slots are limited). I saw some bus before with a sort of extension at the back where bicycles can be parked and transported. We should embrace the bicycle culture as the benefits are exceedingly worth the switch.

Kay naa man kay private vehicle, mas naa kay katungod nga mugamit sa karsada kanamo nga wala?


Palihug lang: Don't tell lies bai. The truth is both are REALITIES. One is a properly implemented BRT and the other is a problematic one.

I afraid yo are right ! I recommend an elevated monorail. Which definitely is more expensive, but absolutely effective:
1) it does not take away a car lane for its own
2) and it is out of reach of any accidents with existing traffic
3) less traffic jams
4) can accommodate more people within a given time
5) and it could even be Pinoy-made !

Ang ciudad sa London naay pamaagi niini para di maghuot ang motorista. Naay gitawag nila nga Congestion Charge diin mobayad ka kun ang imo sakyanan mosulod sa city proper or zone 1. Naay oras alas 7am-7pm. Naay camera kada eskina sulod sa zone 1. Maminosan gyud ang motorista sa lugar nga huot labi na kun sulod sa oras nga naay bayad. Mao nga mas maayo pa nga mogamit BRT para minos gastos ang motorista. Lisod siguro ni mapatuman sa sugbo pero dili imposible.

labi na mga babay kay mawala kuno ang pagka kikay og pgka virgin... sa Japan, ang pinaka gwapa, pimaka sixi, pinaka kikay, pinaka hamis kay kusog kaayo mang bisiklita... maapsan pa ko... pero ang pinay kay mo takilid gyud gani kung mo angkas...:nuts:

Padak-an lang siguro gud ang lingkoranan sa bike, kanang mora'g sofa kadako, kay para di kikay gihan og posing samtang nagbike unya di pud maunsa ang pagka virgin... :D

tinuod lisod gyud pag kontrolar sa kawat sa atoa bai baks..sa ako nakita sa uban nasod uniform man ang design sa bisikleta. Imo gyud siya mahibaloan nga iya sa gobyerno. Di nimo mabaligya ug dali dali. Siguro kun moabot ni nga panahon makahuna huna siguro ug pamaagi ang sugbo unsaon pagkontrol niini.

ug naa na gyud establish bike station nga ka parkingan sa mga bikes kinsa paman kuno buanga ang mo ukab sa imong lock bi. maayo nalang siguro ug moadto siya sa prisohan daan or adto ba sa mintal hospital.

we can change our ways for the better good of cebu and our country. dili ta anang huna2x nga wala na gyud tay ayong mga pinoy nga dili ta ma usab. brt, k+12 are something new to us but we need to embrace change than sticking with the status quo.

mao gyud.. huna huna on lang nato ang Singapore nga once a busted state... face of poverty sa nasud sa Malaysia, the reason Malaysia dropped Singapura state kay di na makaya sa Malaysia ang ka lisod sa kahimtang sa state of Singapura...and became a separate country... but now, everthing has changed... no ned to elaborate :yes:

+100 dili nato irason nga dili mo click ang bag-ong system kay tungod ing-ani ka wlay diciplina ang mga pinoy kay kun mao na diha ra jud ta kutob dili ta molambo kun ipatigbabaw nato na nga prinsipyo.

sa feasibility study okay man, unya ila man sad na nga gi timbang2x daan ang advantages ug disadvantages.

tinood naay pipila ka maligsan ug i sakripisyo pero para sad sa kaayohan sa kinabag-an.

Modern cities solution to high gas and toll fees.
More in line with President Aquino ...Philippines' public- private partnership (PPP) program
rather than government multi million $$$ debt to run inexperienced Mass Transit like kaoshiung buses.
New Jersey buses are going down Bus drivers and unions are not happy today.
We have to redesign the old Cebu jeepneys which delay payments, loading and unloading.
New Jersey jitneys are a pleasure to ride. Fast, more frequent and cheap.
Limousine suspension, air-con and Salsa music. Paying fares are so much easier.
Passengers can stand inside and prepare themselves to exit the door.

Metro Cebu is somehow different with other metros in the country in a sense that it's cities are all facing the same sea/water channel.Hinaot puhon,someone will invest or the government will take advantage of that feature to utilize water transpo nasad.Yeah,we're resort city after all,and it gives us that feel too.hehe

Sa uban lugar, with better urban transport system, ang mga tawo molakaw gud og maski usa ka kilometro para moadto sa station...Tungod ani, nakita sa gobyerno ang need sa pagpanindot sa sidewalk, with matching trees.

Sa una bitaw, nag eskwela pa ko, lakawon ra na namo sa ako mga amigo ang gikan sa USC-TC padulong sa Country Mall, gawas lang kung mag-uwan o magdali.

diri sa dubai miski init kayo manglakaw man ang mga taw, wa pa jud kayoy waiting shed diri og kahoy ang sidewalks.... ako magdala kos akong grocery maglakaw padong sa layo layo nga metro station.. and from my job site to the metro station mga 1.5 kilometers... naay bus stop duol sa akong site pero usahay if di ko magdali nahan ko molakaw padong sa train station nga 1.5 kilometers for an exercise and lami ra pod maminaw sa imo mp3 player while walking and site seeing gamay and pasiplat sa mga cuties.. hahaha! one thing nga makapa-enganyo sa mga taw to walk is improve the city environment and sidewalks, it would stimulate our senses and makapawala sa stress from work...

about sa pag grocery and magdala sa imong pinalit, huna hunaon lang pod nimo nga di ka palabi daghan paliton..igo ra nga madala nimo... if in case naa kay mga bug-at jud nga dad-on, then go get a taxi, riding a jeepney wont help either, same thing maglisod gihapon kag bitbit...hehehe!... mga kabatch nako nga mga pinoy diri sa work atong bag-o pami diri manreklamo og lakaw pero later on naanad na sila, murag wala nalang, some said may ni kay exercise..hehe sa pag anad ra na...

about jeepney drivers, unsay imong ipriority ang kaayohan sa kinabag-an og sa atong future, or ang interest lang sa pipila? mas daghan makabenifit aning BRT kay sa mga maalaut, but anyway the government has plans for them naman pod..as what i have heard sa meeting before with the consultants and ni mr. villarete, nga pwede kuno siminaron ang mga jeepney drivers and mao nalang poy himoong driver ang uban sa BRT, with really good benefits kuno...so oki ra jud :cheers: go go go BRT CEBU! IM SO EXCITED! I LOVE YOU MY CEBU!!!!

at the time na fully operational na ang BRT,managhan sad ang mugamit ug bike especially kanang Folding Bikes,kalami i-negosyo kung daghan mamalit.Kining grupo namo na Cebu Folding Bike (http://www.facebook.com/cebufoldingbikesociety),suporta tawn mi aning BRT kay hinaot maapil ang bicycle lanes sa kadalanan.Last Friday night ride namo,ni-donate si Joel Lee (Movement for Livable Cebu) ug Ice Cream namo para isuwa sa pan ug sotanghon nga pwerteng inita.Nikuyog sad siya sa among ride gamit ang iyang electric car.Paghuman namog pangao-on,niabot lang kalit si Mayor Rama kay nahibung nganong daghan bike,siya ang nitilok sa Ice Cream ug sotanghon kay uwahi naman ni-abot. :lol:

i like unsa ka low profile og dating atong mga opisyalis and mga inila sa katilingban..mao nay nakanindot sa cebuano culture kinowboy miski mga datu og inila! natural ra kayo na diri sa ato nga magmingle rang datu og pobre nga walay kaechusan!! hehe :cheers:

We'll just see nlng bai basta mao lng na akong na observe. mga tao jud ang root anang mga abog bais in cebu unemployment rate is tremendously high and poverty is rampant due to overpopulation. :ohno:

compare http://www.indexmundi.com/g/r.aspx?c=rp&v=69
singapore is not even on the list

na-observe? wala pa gani ang BRT sa cebu...hahaha! adto sa sa curitiba and adto pod sa india og susiha og tarong, research para mas maka understand and para makaingon jud ka nga naka observe ka og resonable imong judgment.....:)

labi na mga babay kay mawala kuno ang pagka kikay og pgka virgin... sa Japan, ang pinaka gwapa, pimaka sixi, pinaka kikay, pinaka hamis kay kusog kaayo mang bisiklita... maapsan pa ko... pero ang pinay kay mo takilid gyud gani kung mo angkas...:nuts:

True!
para nako ang naay class nga klase sa babay og modern og mentality are the ones who have wider view about the world and their environment and are aware of the new ways of becoming green and environmentally conscious... dili nang pinakris aquino nga pangutok! hahaha! ang mga babayng dili ra arte ang gaayo og pasosyal and only concern is iyang kaing-ingan nya taphaw diay kayog pangutok...highly cultured nga mga taw sa europe, japan, parts sa US, australia and asia are very aware and are so interested in doing things differently that could offer better solutions sa mga pressing problems that we encounter in our modern life and urbanity...

Around 500 skateboarders, observing the international Go Skateboarding Day, gathered in front of the Capitol at around 11 am today, flash mob style (top photo). They were peaceful, put on a mini show by riding their boards down the steps until a lone guard appeared and shooed them away. Soon, the boys left and rode their skateboards down Escario St. to take their gathering somewhere else. They occupied the Camputhaw-bound lane of Escario and caused a momentary traffic jam (above photo). The first Go Skateboarding Day was held in southern California in the United States on June 21, 2003. The name of the official holiday of skateboarding is a play on the restriction many skateboarders face in the US: the sign that says “No Skateboarding” that hangs in many establishments.

diri sa dubai miski init...molakaw padong sa train station nga 1.5 kilometers f.... go go go BRT CEBU! IM SO EXCITED! I LOVE YOU MY CEBU!!!!
Cebu is not Dubai. You friend honestly wished for the convenience of the jeepneys provided at low low cost to feed himself and his family.
Cebu's Family income struggles to feed their family everyday. You may like to walk 1.5 kilometer to your Bus stop in Dubai for exercise. Tell that to ordinary families in Cebu who most cannot afford a refrigerator to store and save.
BRT is NOT pratical to Cebu and it is just another unsustainable debt that would affect our Philippine economic stability.

^^

Timeline:
-July 2012: Public exhibitions in city hall, Ayala, and SM
-August 2012: Feasibility study complete
-October 2012: Detailed design commences
-May 2013: Design complete
-October 2013: Earliest construction commences
-2015: Operation



Go BRT...

mayta next ani kay Sea Taxi... kanindot kaha magpanun ang mga sea taxis uniform ang color diha sa mactan channel from Danao to Carcar ng route hehe

yes cebu is not dubai or any other place.. but cebu can always use a proven and efficient transport solution that has been working on smoothly in some other great and beautiful cities.. Cebu deserves only the best cause its the best! dont be soo third world minded, we could only get worse if you want to stay the same. great things starts in one step up.. if you wont do so then we can always stand in one place, or worst, step back...

is our present situation comfortable enough for you that you can dare to just stand in one place? or you are just comfortable cause your one of those rich people who have the luxury of riding their own cars, and their main concern is to widen the roads for more cars...:nuts:
let us, the poor and middle class populace, enjoy some comfort, plssssss.....hehehe!

I super Like @cyberCebu.. ur not just a hunk but a visionary as well...*flirting* ahahaha!

ang kanindot sa City of Cebu just like Dubai kay Linear form ang syudad and dili siya circular nga palapad, mas dali ilayout ang mass transpot corridor in the middle along the linear stretch, and then both sides sa corridor easy or dali ra ma-access sa mga taw by jeepney, bikes or walking kay duol raman from the central corridor...labi nag naa pa juy i-add nga moparallel nga water taxi sa mactan channel or eastern side sa cebu-from carcar to danao... woooha! Cebu u are so lucky dear! blessed!:cheers:

DMD oi ako nalay maluoy sa mga cebuano kay pirti na gyud ng traffica!:ohno:

BRT will really crownd the steets if they implement dedicated bus lanes. pwede rman siguro mu implement ug bus lines not running on dedicated bus lanes but there should be designated stops. stations for bus stops. no one can enter exit a bus if she is not in a station.

talamban road is not that wide. nasamotan pajud karun nga daghan na kaau building gipangbuild along the road without clearance for future road widening. How do you expect BRT to fit in that road. go ko for BRT but the dedicated lanes must be thought of carefully

i think those dedicated bus lanes are only intended for very busy area like jones avenue which is also wider. within the outskirts of the city like talamban, the brt buses can join other vehicles unless they have to totally widened all the streets the same as jones avenue which is already 8 lanes.

mao bitaw nag-paabot pa ta nga totally macompleto na gyud ang feasibility study, bai. sa kataas sa panahon nga gigahin para ana nga study, im sure natackle pud na nga possible nga problem. dili pud tingali ta mudiritso ug hamag kung wala ka kahibaw sa kontra. hehe.

sa tanan nga dili uyon sa brt, paabot lang sa ta sa resulta sa study. kung ang labas kay mas maka-daot, aw, hala, tabangan nato ug rak-rak. karon, mintras tanto, dili lang sa ta mag-una sa mga obserbasyon nga walay basehan kay wala pa may ma-obserbahan. haha.

brt is a system designed to make things better for us. i really hope nga daghan pag seminars nga buhaton nga makaapil ang tanan para matubag ilang answers sa BRT.

pait sad kaayo kung kita ra diri nga pipila nga naka-apil sa mga seminar ang mangugat. ma-aan unya tang naning, sinuhulan, ug die hard sa brt. hahaha

I can honestly say that I can answer most of your questions re the BRT coz I've attended the programs organized by the city gov't in the past. But I choose not to say anything because two or three days from now, a new user will log in and begin asking the same questions.

I believe in time, the right people will answer these questions. If that won't happen, then I guess the system itself na ang mutubag sa mga pangutana.

BRT will not only improve our mass transpo and infrastructure, but it will also improve Cebuanos as a society. Makadisiplina ni'g ahat ang BRT, kay ang tamaran molakaw, wa'y mahimo...Kinahanglan gud siya molakaw padulong sa estasyon.

Since When Jeepneys follow designated stops...?
Why don't we prohibit cars from going into the city during rush hours for the conveniences of the masses?
And even better too No truck deliveries, buses and large vehicles on main roads?
No single occupancy vehicles!
Let the people go.Stop imposing new foreign socialist concept of transport "for the common good excuses"
Such suggestions as you are supporting to impose on our hot and humid/rains and no sidewalk environment.
Others say why don't we make taxicabs un-affordable for the common people.
Those censored pictures of supposedly BRT success happen only on dictatorship countries like IRAN and South Americas.
Democratic and highly populated India like Philippines/Cebu is the reality.

Just recently found out from my conversation with friends from the bpo industry that daimler benz is opening a shared services center in cebu targetting 2000 employees by next year.

dictator diay ang south america??? kanus-a paman na nahitabo??? enlighten me please...:lol:
dili diay ulanon ang south america? sa gikaingon ko na diris dubai perting inita nya perti ka humid labi na rong mga bulana, nadala man sa mga taw... because of the good transport system nga gi-implimintar sa ila government people move around the city with ease and comfort despite the scorching heat of the sun...kung magpadayon tas jeepney mawala ba diay ang kainit and kahumid sa pinas, nya dili ba diay ta mabasa sa uwan??? the BRT is a system that organizes the overall transport and the way people move around the city, buot pasabot apil sa plano ang pagtarong sa sidewalk, pagbutang og waiting shed to protect us from heat and rain, naay designated bus lane para diritso2x ang bus dili matraffic, feeder system padong sa station which is gamit kayo atong jeepney(pero improvised na unta), then tree-lined sidewalk para dili ta ma-initan, and hopefully ma-incorporate ang bike lanes... kung padayon tas jeep og pagkabati sa atong system of transportation, wala jud tay ma-achieve nga kaayohan og pag improve sa atong paagi sa panginabuhi....

about trucks dugay naman na na implement nga dili makasulod sa central core sa city or downtown and uptown area ang mga truck...sa uban main road outside the urban core of course allowede ang trucks, unsaon naman lang pagdeliver sa atong products from other places, madaut pod atong economiya ana...private vehicles dili pasudlon sa city center? i think its more of a dictator, actually extreme siya.. why not layout the BRT corridor first then let the people choose if they will use their cars or ride the BRT, then mabalansi na nila kung asa sila mas madali... the important thing is Mass transport is the prioroty, kinahanglan fast comfortable ang mass transport system, para pohon marealize sa mga car owners nga mas maayo nalang mosakay og BRT kaysa magdala sa ila sakyanan... its more democratic to me...hahahaha...

Environment office stalls permit for Cebu project

Saturday, June 23, 2012

CEBU CITY -- Capitol and Fifth Avenue Property Development Corp. will not be able to proceed with the construction of the Ciudad project yet, after the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) denied their application for an environmental compliance certificate (ECC).

In a letter dated June 20, 2012, DENR-Central Visayas Director Fernando Quililan informed Fifth Avenue that it cannot be issued an ECC because it failed to secure a tree cutting permit, which was required of the developer because of the “numerous number of trees that might be affected in the project area.”

The developer will not be able to reapply for an ECC and for a tree cutting permit because its issuance has been suspended effective April 30 this year.

Without an ECC, Fifth Avenue cannot be issued a building permit by City Hall.

“Please be informed that this office decided to deny your ECC application due to non-compliance of the said requirement, which you cannot as well secure as of now in view of a recent memorandum… for the ‘Suspension on the Processing of all Requests for Cutting Permits,’ which this office is bound to observe in compliance thereof,” Quililan said in his letter to Fifth Avenue.

The memorandum was signed by DENR Undersecretary Analiza Rebuelta-Teh last April 30

its nice to see kids being active with skateboarding but they have to stay away from properties like the capitol nga makaguba man intawon na sa mga railings sidewalks benches ug uban pa dinha nga ilang pa sidsiran. maayo buhatan na sila ug skateboarding park kay magdagsang na sila fuente osmena na maguba gyud nang atong mga historical landmarks cuz they dont care about it. what they care is the thrill and fun they have with this kind of sport.

i had arguments with this issue before where kids bring their skateboard to class unya ing non lang ko sa counselor nga that's their form of transportation. so ako gi ing nan, aw diay pakuha sila ug driving permit ana ilang skateboard kon mao man gani na imong razon. para naku its child endangerment para sa mga parents nga mo allow ani as form of transporation.

I attended one of the meetings two years ago and from what I heard, the BRT project is not just simply about putting buses on the streets.

The project is quite "complicated" actually and it has the following components included in the package aside from just simply putting buses on the streets:

1.) Acquisition of property and widening of roads where the BRT will pass;
2.) Improvement of sidewalks along the BRT route;
3.) Construction of overpasses, flyovers, ramps, tunnels, etc. in the BRT route;
3.) Upgrading of traffic light system in the BRT route;
4.) Upgrading of drainage system in the BRT route;
5.) Construction of BRT terminals/stations;


I guess this answers the concern of some regarding the width of the roads where the buses will pass.

Again, the BRT project is not just about simply putting buses on the streets. Had it been that simple then the government could have just deployed buses long ago.

When you build a subway or LRT, do you just simply put the trains on the streets? Of course not, you also build the necessary infrastructure such as tunnels, or elevated platforms.

Same thing with BRT.

naa man mga courses about urban planning sa ce pero elective ra lage. wala pd namu na take up. sa archi naa sd pero 6 units total raman siguro ang urban planning related

i think those dedicated bus lanes are only intended for very busy area like jones avenue which is also wider. within the outskirts of the city like talamban, the brt buses can join other vehicles unless they have to totally widened all the streets the same as jones avenue which is already 8 lanes.

good thing kung ing.ana jud. im worried jud about places like talamban na dili wide ang road nya wala pajud easement for road widening.

I attended one of the meetings two years ago and from what I heard, the BRT project is not just simply about putting buses on the streets.

The project is quite "complicated" actually and it has the following components included in the package aside from just simply putting buses on the streets:

1.) Acquisition of property and widening of roads where the BRT will pass;
2.) Improvement of sidewalks along the BRT route;
3.) Construction of overpasses, flyovers, ramps, tunnels, etc. in the BRT route;
3.) Upgrading of traffic light system in the BRT route;
4.) Upgrading of drainage system in the BRT route;
5.) Construction of BRT terminals/stations;


I guess this answers the concern of some regarding the width of the roads where the buses will pass.

Again, the BRT project is not just about simply putting buses on the streets. Had it been that simple then the government could have just deployed buses long ago.

When you build a subway or LRT, do you just simply put the trains on the streets? Of course not, you also build the necessary infrastructure such as tunnels, or elevated platforms.

Same thing with BRT.





...

again im just stating my concerns. speacially sa talamban area. labi na sa USC TC kay ddto ko ga skwela. the side of USC TC pwede siguro ma widen ang road pero the other side of TC ug sa nasipit area has alot of structures na tag 4 storeys raba. if roads will be widened there aw gub.on pa nila tong mga buildings? kay sa akong estimate lng (di sd ko expert) di ma fit ang road widening plus brt routes that will run through that stracth. pwede siguro mag himo jud sila ug laing road just for the BRT para di ma congest ang area.

mao bitaw nag-paabot pa ta nga totally macompleto na gyud ang feasibility study, bai. sa kataas sa panahon nga gigahin para ana nga study, im sure natackle pud na nga possible nga problem. dili pud tingali ta mudiritso ug hamag kung wala ka kahibaw sa kontra. hehe.

sa tanan nga dili uyon sa brt, paabot lang sa ta sa resulta sa study. kung ang labas kay mas maka-daot, aw, hala, tabangan nato ug rak-rak. karon, mintras tanto, dili lang sa ta mag-una sa mga obserbasyon nga walay basehan kay wala pa may ma-obserbahan. haha.

brt is a system designed to make things better for us. i really hope nga daghan pag seminars nga buhaton nga makaapil ang tanan para matubag ilang answers sa BRT.

pait sad kaayo kung kita ra diri nga pipila nga naka-apil sa mga seminar ang mangugat. ma-aan unya tang naning, sinuhulan, ug die hard sa brt. hahaha

I can honestly say that I can answer most of your questions re the BRT coz I've attended the programs organized by the city gov't in the past. But I choose not to say anything because two or three days from now, a new user will log in and begin asking the same questions.

I believe in time, the right people will answer these questions. If that won't happen, then I guess the system itself na ang mutubag sa mga pangutana.

as i havve said dili ko kontra sa BRT naa lng koy mga concerns ba. you cant be go lng ng go for a very big project like that. naa sd siguro silay mga solutions to those concerns and thats what i would like to hear. nahan bya ko mu suway ug apil ang BRT programs or seminars interested kaayo ko about sa transport systems kay kung ako papilion BRT ko compared sa jeep. pero mag awto pd ko usahay nya kapoi kaau nang ma stuck sa traffic so about my concerns sa BRT sa talamban area i still think dako pa kaayu ang problem ddto. (opinion lng na nko)

naa man mga courses about urban planning sa ce pero elective ra lage. wala pd namu na take up. sa archi naa sd pero 6 units total raman siguro ang urban planning related

brt has to be continually integrated in the curriculum kay wala man ni sa manila. i know kon unsay i diktar didto mao rasab ang sundon sa curruculum but ched granted autonomy on some universities to be innovative in their teachings. nindot man gani i apil ni siya sa civics lesson para sa mga high school ug elementary students on environmental awareness kay we need to change our attitudes para ma preserve nato ang atong kalikopan (i just learned this bisaya word here in ssc):cheers:

i hope the skateboarders will not walk throught it park anymore. kinahanglan duna gyud mo pursege aning mga bata nato karon kay mga dagkong ulo usahay.

Property giant offers Cebuanos ‘live-work-play’ dynamics
By: Theresa S. Samaniego
Philippine Daily Inquirer

Tweet share4 0
THE AVIDA Towers Riala, is Avida Land’s newest development in Cebu that offers wide greens and open spaces.
Even before it was touted as the bustling Queen City of the South, Cebu has long attracted and enamored many individuals into settling into its city.
And property developers, of course, were not spared from Cebu City’s enchanting charm, with many of them setting up their respective townships and developments, to take advantage of the growing demand for quality housing in the area.
Take for instance the latest offering by Avida Corp., a subsidiary of property giant Ayala Land.
The Avida Towers Riala introduces to its buyers an “integrated living concept” wherein residents can indulge in a life of comfort and relaxation with lush, green and open spaces—smack in the middle of the hustle and bustle.
Live-work-play dynamics
The five-tower Avida Towers Riala will rise on a 21,246 square-meter area within the Cebu Park District, the premier business, lifestyle and leisure destination in Cebu. This district covers the Cebu Business Park and Cebu IT Park—each one a complete destination, comprising a dynamic whole.
Both parks, according to Avida Land, enjoy a critical mass of locators in the spheres of business, banking, finance, IT and tourism services, as well as residential and commercial developments to complete the live-work-play dynamics within the community.

RENDITION of living and dining areas of an Avida Towers Riala unit.
According to Avida, its latest project offering combines the benefits of a healthy, green environment with the conveniences and thrills of a modern, urban existence. The property is just a short walk from major commercial and business centers, as well as top schools and hospitals.
Avida Towers Riala allows its residents to “readily create the lifestyle they want and imagined—one that nurtures true well-being. The said development will also allow future residents to enjoy laid-back moments after taking on the challenges of work with its numerous amenities and facilities.”
Those who wish a more active recreation will enjoy jogging trails, swimming pools and a grand lawn. There are courtyards and private gardens where one can reflect and meditate while the lush landscape of trees and greenery can evoke serenity and feelings of wellness.
There will also be three additional podium levels that will house exclusive residential parking slots. Located on top of the podium level is the amenity deck, which houses the lap pool and kiddie pool, courtyards and private gardens.
In cases where some retail therapy is in order, residents can choose from a variety of shops and restaurants that will be located within the upper ground floor of the building.
Residential units
The first tower of Avida Towers Riala has a total of 621 residential units, with 27 residential floors. It is now offering units to would-be residents, as well as investors.
Three types of units are available in Tower 1: studio units at 23 sq m; 1-bedroom unit at 41 sq m and 2-bedroom unit at approximately 56.6 sq m, all with affordable price tags ranging from P1.8 million to P5.5 million.

Nothing is impossible in this world if there is money. If I'm not mistaken, the BRT will be financed by the World Bank?

Anyway, even if it is a 20-storey building, if it will stand in the way of an important national project, then it will have to go. It will be demolished. It's very easy and the owners can't do anything about it except to be compensated.

Just look at Sergio Osmena avenue near Fort San Pedro/Plaza Independencia where the tunnel exits. The huge warehouses were even demolished to give way to road widening to complement the tunnel.

BRT system to absorb "best" PUJ drivers
By Jessica Ann R. Pareja/MIT (The Freeman)
Updated June 24, 2012 12:00

Brader said that the BRT will overwhelmingly reduce traffic congestion because the absence of jeepneys that frequently stops anywhere will increase the number of vehicles that the affected roads will be able to carry.

There will be all-in-all 14 stations to be placed 450 meters apart. People will learn to walk on sidewalks, which, the project also promised to beautify and rehabilitate.

The BRT system is also environment-friendly since the buses are designed to operate on ultra-clean diesel. (FREEMAN)

Where is 1 to 5 implimentation? :bash:
Surely on Phase I, the government will just deploy buses first.
The big depreciable items first like impoted buses for fast money of course.
Remember when the subway was finished,
No one even knew who was supposed to manage and maintain it.
At some point toll revenue must maintain the subway.
So who's going to manage BRT? (Would it be Kaoshiung people??)
Why the fare has never been the main issue?

1 to 5 implimentation should be top priority for us people not BRT.
There is no comparison to the fare,efficiency and 24/7 convenience of a jeepney ride. There is no area in Cebu City that jeepney ride is not a short walking distance.We use buses for long drive to carry more passenger to a far way distination. If this buses were to dropped off 50 passengers it would take at least 2 hours excluding traffic travel time. Cebu is not that big as Curitiba - do not have our jeepney service. Nor Cebu have public housing and work zone. If we have a tree line sidewalk, people would leisurely walk and bike like from Tisa, Labangon to USC, Abellana and Magallanes even City Hall. As a kid, I remember walking with my brother and sister home from Sacred Heart School.
Who wants to be herded in a station like animals controlled by government and corporate employees?
What is so modern about that? Hitler was so efficient and expert in mass transport from the overcrowded ghettos to extermination camps?

^^

Honestly, I really cannot understand what you're talking about. :nuts:

Anyway, this is a very big project and I have trust in the World Bank.

Just wait and see.

:)

From Tommy O's Facebook Page:

The pilot route of the BRT will need about 1,500 station staff and personnel including 500 drivers.

Initially, there will be over 240 buses to ply the routes, each will be assigned with two drivers who will report to duty on different shifts.

Since there are only initial 500 slots available, Cebu Bus Rapid Transit lead consultant Colin Brader said that drivers will undergo screening to ensure that the BRT will have the “best drivers” from the pool of PUJ drivers in Cebu City.

Azkals to play in Cebu
By Mike T. Limpag, SunStar News Online
Friday | June 22, 2012


Dakay, who is also involved in the construction of the University of San Carlos stadium set to open later this year, said he will consult with Mike Madamba on whether the CCSC pitch, which is on the final stages of its renovation, can host an international football match.

The 5 items enumerated by emperorkarl should come before the aquisition of BRT buses. The initial budget of $185 million from World Bank (http://www.sunstar.com.ph/cebu/local-news/2012/06/23/cebu-bus-transit-project-pegged-185m-228326) I think would be for infrastructures outside of the BRT buses. So there's no depreciation expense from BRT buses which will be procured of course once the system is in place. Mao bitaw naa feasibility study.

lami na kaayo ilakaw lakaw kung ma rehabilitate ang side walks... exercise sad sa mga tapulan nga mo lakaw within 450m stops apart sa BRT...

kung pwede mag bagtas lang kung wa kay dala....sayang ang nindot nga sidewalk dili magamit hehe

ug mo minus na ang mahanggab nato nag aso sa tambutso :lol:

^^ good thing though is that most of Cebu's sidewalks have trees. Maski ang ubang sidewalks wala na sa good shape, the trees there provide ample shade.

Wow.. Nice work @ rest... Kana structure tapad sa Skyrise wala pa jud ta info ana.. Mao man unta na suspect nato na 2Quad but it turns out a different project... I have asked construction workers who fenced the site but they also have no idea..

Anyway, i believe this will be a single storey, perhaps another bank, i suppose. :)

According to source there will be five to six more projects to be known within CBP alone within the year up to early next year..:D

I suppose these already include the FLB Tower, Cebu Commercial Tower 2, Eton Cyberpod Cebu, another condo by Appleone, an Ayala BPO Tower and possibly a hotel.. Just my guess... :okay:

Colin Brader is a very influential businessman for profit with World Bank, a foreigner who probably do not understand our culture and our uniquely Filipino jeepney transit. He will impose a socialist and colonial mentality on us while feeding on some money hungry politicians.
He should stop lying. Filipinos are known in Western World working behind Global Accounting Firm. He is lying.
He said:"There will be over 240 buses to ply the routes, each will be assigned with two drivers who will report to duty on different shifts.needs about 500" and claims to be filled by for un-employed jeepney drivers. with heavy restrictions.
THAT'S A LIE.
240 buses x2 = 480; Thats 480 not 500
THE TRUTH IS:
240 buses x50 = 12,000 passengers /bus
1,200 jeepneys or 2,400 unemployed drivers will be unemployed.
2,400 - 480 = 1,920 net unemployed drivers on Phase 1.
About 5,000 family members will be bungry.
Colin Brader says that the fare, which is to be discussed yet, will also be made affordable to passengers. With affordable fares What Western standard is affordable? Does Brader mean that Western prices for Starbuck coffee and Krespy Creme prices of a days PAY .AFFORDABLE.?
Stop thinking businesses are doing good for you.
Wake up people, the fare to go to work or school is the cheapest today.
Why are you paying water being bottled today for the price of soda?
Why are you paying for TV w/c broadcasters got paid for their ads?
Why should should we pay more for the kind service of our SUKI jeepney driver?
Does BRT benefit more private car owners easy traffic like Bader and our politicians?

hala nag compute naman lagi ni lolz

http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h102/cebupics3/Cebu%20Business%20Park/cbp062012.jpg

my guess would either be:

1. vacant lot currently being used as parking area in front of metro gaisano (beside the proposed FLB building)
2. vacant lot between Ayala PUV Terminal and Cebu Commercial tower.

these areas have easy access to Ayala Mall, and the streets BRT will pass through: Escario (Bulacao-Ayala route) and Gov Cuenco (Talamban-Ayala road)

according to the reports the stations are 450meters apart. so if you think about it the farthest one can be from a station is around 225meters only (midway between 2 stations)...

Change is the only constant thing in this world. Without change, you are nothing. Your life is meaningless if you don't want change to happen into your life same goes when Cebu doesn't want to change its traditional modes of transport even though it has proven enough to be ineffective and unreliable over the past so many years. :nuts:

aw naa sad diay ingun ani nga bisag asa lang hunong og mag door to door? Nice! Karon pa ko :lol:

Colin Brader is a very influential businessman for profit with World Bank, a foreigner who probably do not understand our culture and our uniquely Filipino jeepney transit. He will impose a socialist and colonial mentality on us while feeding on some money hungry politicians.

Just this statement i was totally confused. He is accusing Mr. Brader of being a socialist and instilling colonial mentality on us regarding the BRT because he is trying to be patriotic of our unique and genuine filipino jeepneys but how come he wants European trams over this South American transport? isn't that promoting colonial mentality here as well and worst being a racist of some sort? :nuts:

^^ oh I love trams. If I were to choose between that and the BRT, no more thinking about it, I'd pick trams in a heartbeat! But trams are not the option here, its between going for the conventional BRT or still wanting to get stuck on dilapidated jeepneys for the rest of our lives! :nuts:
If we pay these jeepneys as much as BRT or LRT Manila like 30 PHP, private enterprises competition will offer better rides. In New Jersey Rapid Transit are losing ridership and jitneys are prospering. Everytime, I ride the jitneys it reminds me the catastrophic direction our Cebu pro BRT politicians are promoting. Google on New Jersey jitneys and polticians are trying to indiscriminately find ways to stop peoples need for better transportation. It use to take me 3 hours to visit a friend by NJ Bus Rapid Transit with 1 hour only w/ jitneys. The profiles of this jitneys are so efficient.
I think, Cebu City today needs to enfiorce designated stops without the need of special designated bus lanes.
New Jersey buses are going down. Bus drivers and unions are not happy today.
We have to redesign the old Cebu jeepneys which delay payments, loading and unloading.
New Jersey jitneys are a pleasure to ride. Fast, more frequent and cheap.
Limousine suspension, air-con and Salsa music. Paying fares are so much easier.
Passengers can stand inside and prepare themselves to exit the door.

IMO,that's not the ideal solution to the main problem. The main concern is the traffic and the solution is mass transport system. f u insist on that,mura rag walay mahitabo, kay ang main cause sa traffic ang growing number of jeepneys plying on the streets.(maau unta 2 ug dli mga badlongon)

pero go ko anang ferry boats.heheh

Metro Cebu is somehow different with other metros in the country in a sense that it's cities are all facing the same sea/water channel.Hinaot puhon,someone will invest or the government will take advantage of that feature to utilize water transpo nasad.Yeah,we're resort city after all,and it gives us that feel too.hehe

Go BRT! Be worldclass cebu... improve the lives of your people...

Dako kaayo kag problema sa BRT nuh? Problemaha na lang nang imoha duh...:lol:

We've been clamoring for this mass transport system for the past three years, and now the view is quiet clear....... Whether you like it or not.. we will have the BRT by 2015.. And hopefully another BRT line from the Airport to Cebu City very soon.... :okay:

And Cebu will now join the list of World class cities employing this kind of mass transport system!!

nahimuot lang ko kay @julfinch.... :lol:

MALL MADNESS IN CEBU
Philippine Daily Inquirer Online
23 June 2012

http://opinion.inquirer.net/files/2012/06/Malls_cebu.jpg

Malls have been sprouting like mushrooms here and in Cebu province.
SM opened its second mall in the province in Consolacion town in northern Cebu on
June 1 while construction of SM Seaside City at the South Road Properties is ongoing.
J Mall opened in Mandaue City last November.

http://opinion.inquirer.net/files/2012/06/Malls_ayala-terraces.jpg

Ayala Center Cebu (ACC) is undergoing a P2-billion expansion, which will be completed
in 2013. The Gaisano group has joined the bandwagon with its simultaneous construction
of at least four malls in the province.

http://opinion.inquirer.net/files/2012/06/Malls_SM-City-Northwing.jpg

34 malls on island
Is there enough market for these malls, especially that there are at least 34 existing malls
spread here and the province? Cebu City alone has 16 malls. These are Banilad Town
Center, Robinson’s Place Cebu, Robinson’s Cybergate, JY Square Mall, Elizabeth Mall,
SM City Cebu, Ayala Center Cebu, Raintree Mall, Coco Mall, Colonade Mall, Gaisano Main,
Gaisano Capital-South (which was gutted by fire in December last year), Gaisano Capital
Tisa, Gaisano Grand Talamban, Gaisano Country Mall and Gaisano Metro Colon.

6 in Mandaue
In Mandaue, there are six—Parkmall, Bridges Town Square, North Atrium, J Mall, Gaisano
Pacific Mall and Gaisano Grand Mall. The three malls in Lapu-Lapu City are Mactan Marina Mall,
Gaisano Mactan Island Mall and the Gaisano Grand Mall.

Other malls are located in Talisay City (Gaisano Grand Fiesta Mall), Minglanilla town
(Gaisano Grand Minglanilla), Consolacion (Fooda Mall), Carcar City (Gaisano Grand Carcar),
Toledo City (Gaisano Grand Toledo and Metro Plaza Toledo), Balamban town (Gaisano Balamban),
Bogo City (Gaisano) and Danao City (Gaisano Capital). Still, a Cebuano economist predicted
that in the next five years, more malls would be constructed on Cebu island, which stretches
225 km from north to south and had a total population of 4.17 million in 2010.

Definitely correct!!! I visited Southhampton UK last last year, It has narrow roads but their BRT system works smoothly! the pedestrian lanes are covered with trees along malls and boutiques. and I felt relax and safe just walking around....No doubt BRT will indeed compliment Cebu's environment...BRT for Cebu:banana::banana::banana::banana::banana::banana::banana:

When the BRT will be implemented I am pretty sure there will be widespread confusion. Expect lawsuits fron drivers who will be affected. Add to that the politicking too. But then again this is just normal since there will always be an adjustment period for every drastic change that one experiences.

true that @Droids and @emperor.

that is why we start right HERE. as much as possible, let us be patient with those who attack the proposal without even doing a quick research. let us help INFORM and EDUCATE. we're so close to the real thing, we can't let a few speculations ruin what we've all hoped and worked hard for. :)

Life in what Metro Cebu residents call “the province” isn’t as removed from technology as it used to be. There’s “cable” TV now although it isn’t exactly cable. They’re satellite dishes, like this roadside display in Dumanjug. For a few hundred pesos a month, Cebuanos in any corner (or islet) in Cebu can get cable channels in prepaid plans.

CIPC to recruit workers in Visayas, Mindanao


THE Cebu Investment and Promotion Center (CIPC) will recruit people from Visayas and Mindanao to work in Cebu to address the manpower requirement of the knowledge process outsourcing (KPO) and business process outsourcing (BPO) industries here.

CIPC managing director Joel Mari Yu said he is planning to bring KPO and BPO companies to various key cities in the Visayas and Mindanao to promote Cebu as an employment destination.

Fast growth
“It is growing so fast that if there are 20,000 available talents for this industry, they will all be absorbed in just a matter of weeks,” he said. The KPO-BPO industry in Cebu currently employs 70,000 to 75,000.


Infra in place
Yu targets to grow Cebu’s KPO and BPO workforce to 100,000 in two years. “We see no problem with infrastructure because it’s already in place,” he said.

According to Yu, the recruitment effort will help strengthen Cebu’s footing as one of the emerged BPO destinations in the world.

I actually find some hidden intelligence and conviction in your posts, except that the way you post and the quick reflexive patterns of your arguments is a little too much for us with normal IQs. Hehehe.

Recovering Japanese market to lift Phl tourism, industries
The Freeman
25 June 2012

CEBU, Philippines – The recovering interest of the Japanese market to consider Cebu
as a preferred vacation destination, as indicated by the growing number of arrivals
and its strong interest to acquire condominium units could boost not only tourism
sector, but other industries here.

Known for its love in wellness, and leisure, the Japanese market rebound is seen to
further boost the wellness, healthcare, entertainment, retail and even real estate
sectors in the province, said Cebu Health and Wellness Council (CHWC) trustee
Patria Aurora “Dawnie” Roa.

Hotel owner's son, friend accused of molesting Japanese girls

A young Japanese woman arrived in Lapu-Lapu City last June 21 to visit her Japanese friend and have some fun in the sun.
But her vacation turned into a nightmare for her and her friend after they were raped by two Korean nationals in a motel in Lapu-Lapu City last Saturday morning.
The two Koreans were arrested by operatives of the Criminal Investigation and Detection Group in Central Visayas (CIDG-7) a day after the rape occurred.
One of the suspects is supposedly the son of a hotel owner based in Lapu-Lapu City.

Central Visayas PPP projects await approval

CEBU CITY -- Two major airport projects proposed for the Central Visayas region that will be implemented through the public-private partnership (PPP) scheme are still awaiting government approval, a regional official said.

Efren B. Carreon, assistant regional director of the National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA), said the proposed P5.8-billion Mactan-Cebu International Airport passenger terminal still needs the endorsement of the Lapu-Lapu City Council, while the long delayed P8-billion New Bohol (Panglao) Airport Development Project is currently up for review.

7-Eleven operator to spend P1.5 billion

LISTED RETAILER Philippine Seven Corp., which operates the 7-Eleven chain, is looking to spend over P1 billion this year to expand and refurbish its network of convenience stores, a company official said.

“For the whole year, the company’s entire capex will be around P1.5 billion, mostly from internal funds, mostly for our new stores. We aim to end the year with 870 stores, compared to 690 last year,” Lawrence M. De Leon, Philippine Seven finance division manager, told BusinessWorld in a telephone interview.
Most of the company’s new stores will be built in Luzon, given the robust growth of existing 7-Eleven stores here.
“We experienced favorable yields in these areas, particularly in NCR (National Capital Region) and some of the provinces. Our stores here have performed within our expectations,” Mr. De Leon said.

cars here in cebu are generally much more expensive than cars in NCR siguro 20k-50k difference basin gani lapas pa ug 50k ang difference, beware of the na-ondoy car lng because they are cheap but som were submereged in water during typhoon ondoy.

it is a known fact that 2nd hand cebu cars are more expensive than their luzon counterparts dahil cars there could have been used in all terrain. naa nay gikan sa baguio, tagaytay etc etc, naa nay stress sa makina ana unlike cebu cars nga generally sa flat lang gyud pirmi, dili sad tanan sigeg adto ug transcentral mao nga ang makina sa mga cebu 2nd hand cars mas ok, dili overused and naturally will be more expensive. PLUS point nang "cebu unit" sa second hand cars.

Valuation of cars depends largely on the number of kilometers it made and the wear and tear... Second hand cars in NCR are understandably cheaper because it has more thousand of kilometers used since it usually travels within Luzon Island compared to Cebu cars which travels only within the Cebu province..

Dire sa Cebu.. you can even buy cars na although 3 years na sya but still 15,000 kms pa lang iyang nagamit.. My car who is 2 years old, wala pa gani kaabot 15,000.. So, resale value can still be higher... ^^

Which Is a better choice car- highway or city driven?
Odometer reading samples:
1,000 hours @15 km/h city = 15,000 km
1,000 hours @100 km/h highway =100,000 km
Another factor: Cebu has coastal roads thereby high salt exposure !!
Salt corrosion is harder to detect or mitigate than rain water flooding
even on aluminum parts.

Guys, I like to share regarding bus vs. jeepney or whatever it is. And hopefully close the said case.

Funny enough, for the Digos City - Bansalan, Davao del Sur (distance is 18 kilometers) route, the fare of non-aircon bus is cheaper than a jeepney by five pesos. And the fare of aircon bus is the same as the jeepney and van-for-hire.

Thus during peak hours, passengers prefer standing in the bus rather than sitting in the jeep.

And yes, I am not kidding.

Do post-war restoration of trams only apply to Manila?
People who are not from Cebu will tell you that it is too expensive.
Yet, we build highrises that 99% Cebuanos cannot even afford to live in.
Is this being negative?We refuse to understand
that Cebuanos deserve what Manila and its region are continously developing
today - they tell us just take a bus..

Free enterprise not government or corporate control is the way to go.
Absolutely competition always work.
BRT people will not even tell you how much is the fare?
BRT people always knows we cannot refuse the imposed monoply fare.
The corporate scam is based on this fact:
Same ice cream seems to taste better in SM or Ayala Terrace!
Same movie seems more enjoyable in cineplex than even if have LED at home.
The big difference is your pocket is lighter or monthly bank statement is
as thick as the Bible you won't even care to read.
We're all scared like hell.

ohmygod, before we all know it, we'll be talking about the theory of evolution and whether or not the egg actually came first. hehe.

With all due respect, TagaCebuII, we do get your point. and we thank you for your concern. But I guess Cebuanos are mature enough to not want to ask for cake when they know there is not enough to serve. I know you are pro-train. Trains are awesome. But they are expensive. And not too environment-friendly. Just because Manila has it doesn't mean we should have it, too.

You do care about Cebu's heritage preservation. But are you aware that one of the earliest plans was to have the LRT pass directly above Fuente Osmena?

Do not worry about the 'take the bus' thing. When the BRT is in place, people will cease to call it BUS. People will call it BRT or TransCebu.

^^

today, Cebuanos insist that we'll just take the bus which is just cheaper to build and spend the excess money (for Mindanao) that is supposed to be built for a train .

mao na'y usa sa rason (sa pag sugod pa lang sa plano sa BRT)why Cebu chose the cheaper BRT kay hilasan kaayo maminaw ang most Cebuanos nga mag train train ta unya ang silingan nato nga Mindanao padayong gi kihawan sa mga projects sa National gov't.

The corporate scam is based on this fact:
Same ice cream seems to taste better in SM or Ayala Terrace!
Same movie seems more enjoyable in cineplex than even if have LED at home.
The big difference is your pocket is lighter or monthly bank statement is
as thick as the Bible you won't even care to read.
We're all scared like hell.

Nope. The point is, scalability.

And oh, there are, four bus companies that ply Digos to Bansalan, and they have the same rates. So where's the competition if there are the same rates? :lol:

Anyway, it's just an example, in real life.

ohmygod, before we all know it, we'll be talking about the theory of evolution and whether or not the egg actually came first. hehe.

With all due respect, TagaCebuII, we do get your point. and we thank you for your concern. But I guess Cebuanos are mature enough to not want to ask for cake when they know there is not enough to serve. I know you are pro-train. Trains are awesome. But they are expensive. And not too environment-friendly. Just because Manila has it doesn't mean we should have it, too.

You do care about Cebu's heritage preservation. But are you aware that one of the earliest plans was to have the LRT pass directly above Fuente Osmena?

Do not worry about the 'take the bus' thing. When the BRT is in place, people will cease to call it BUS. People will call it BRT or TransCebu.

In short, deal with it. :lol:

Addendum. One does not simply argue with Cebuano SSC Member without extremely hard facts.
