On August 18, 2021, the Cebu City council, in its regular session, has approved the Rotunda proposal.
The Regional Director of the Department of Public Works and Highway (DPWH) Engr. Edgar Tabacon, proposed to the council the plan to construct a roundabout (rotunda). The rotunda will be at the SRP junction, along Vestil Street in Mambaling.
This proposal was to lessen or ease the traffic situation in the area. Furthermore, a shorter route for the motorists bound for Mambaling. Instead of taking the U-Turn slot under the SRP viaduct, they can take the rotunda.
4 lanes will be constructed for North-bound and South-bound and 4 lanes for entry and exit to Mambaling. These lanes were indicated on the proposal. A Pedestrian Overpass and 4 lanes alternative access road the back portion of SRP were also indicated.
Two years and counting…what happened to this project? It seems stalled. There is no construction activity. It appears that what was started is wrapped up, finished.
