Mayor seeking formal commitment from public works contractors

As the Cebu City Government continues to pursue projects under the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH), Cebu City Mayor Nestor Archival said there is only one contractor so far that has been required to submit a Commitment of Undertaking (COU).

In a press conference yesterday, Archival said they were provided with a new list of projects that they will have to review again. However, he said that his focus is on the immediate projects that need attention, having assessed that they are already causing inconvenience to the public.

Among these is the area near Marco Polo, where he requested multiple adjustments from the contractor's end in order to ensure amicable compliance. Archival enumerated his requests, which include the installation of signages, traffic flagmen every 200 meters, street cleaners, and a COU.

He said contractor, KIMWA Construction and Development Corp., already submitted their COU, emphasizing that they are the first to do so for their concrete pavement project.

“Naa na sa ilang mga kamot ang bola sa paghuman sa area sa concreting g’yud sa main road which is October 30,” said Archival.
