Public Works and Highways Secretary Rogelio Singson has designated Reynaldo Venturina as officer-in-charge of the Department of Public Works and Highways – Bacolod City District Engineering Office to replace Josefino Melgar Jr.
Venturina was also directed by Singson to perform the duties and assume the responsibilities of the District Engineer of Bacolod, in Special Order No. 169, Series of 2011, dated Sept. 19. Singson also directed Melgar to report to DPWH Region VI for his new assignment, in a memorandum dated September 19. Acting Bacolod Mayor Jude Thaddeus Sayson yesterday wished Venturina good luck in his new job and requested him to coordinate with the Bacolod City Authority Office regarding road repairs being undertaken by his office. Sayson reminded Venturina that any road closure should have authority from the Bacolod Sangguniang Panlungsod as provided in the Local Government Code. Meanwhile, the SP passed a resolution urgently requesting the DPWH to stop the destruction of serviceable roads and to fast track the repair of the Sta. Fe road (Burgos Extension). Authored by Councilor Roberto Rojas, the resolution said the Sta. Fe road leads to several cemeteries, especially Rolling Hills, Greenhills and Somerset, which many people visit during All Saints Day. The resolution urged the DPWH to finish the project before November 1 to ease traffic in the area during the celebration of All Saints Day. The SP also passed another resolution requesting Singson to transfer the site of the proposed flyover from Magsaysay-Araneta streets to the junction of Lopue’s East. Authored by Councilor El Cid Familiaran, the resolution said the present development in the city’s eastern portion, especially along Burgos Street-Circumferential Road, has made these areas busy and demand suitable facilities to minimize traffic like a flyover.*CGS CHRYSEE SAMILLANO Visayan Daily Star
