CCENRO installs trash trap along Mahiga River
The Freeman
|October 23, 2025
In a renewed push to safeguard Cebu City’s waterways, the Cebu City Environment and Natural Resources Office (CCENRO) have installed a new trash trap along Mahiga River, marking a strategic revival of the city’s river waste interception program.
-
The installation, completed early this week, is part of a broader intercity cooperation with Mandaue City to curb waste migration across boundaries and prevent ocean-bound debris.
Within weeks, Barangay Mabolo’s Clean and Green team reported the collection of 105 sacks of garbage—mostly plastic waste—underscoring the trap’s immediate impact.
This blends low-tech engineering with high-impact community engagement, empowering barangays to maintain and monitor traps in their jurisdictions.
