The Cebu City government has officially sealed its partnership with Visayan Electric Company and the Aboitiz Foundation Inc. for the rollout of Project ECO Loop (Phase 1), a pioneering initiative that will deploy free electric buses across key heritage routes in the city.

This came following a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) signed recently, marking the start of Cebu’s first electric bus system.

Mayor Nestor Archival, who led the signing, described the project as a long-awaited step toward sustainable mobility and inclusive urban development.
