Cebu BRT construction finally begins in January 2023

A Singapore-like city vision means better public transportation.

Cebu City Public Information Office recently announced that the long-overdue Cebu Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) project will finally begin in January 2023.

Cebu City Mayor Michael Rama is said to hasten the project implementation further as he visited Engr. Benedicto Guia Jr., manager of DOTr’s National BRT Program Management Office, for status updates.

DOTr revealed in a courtesy call that the winning bidder is already selected for the civil works of the project’s package 1. Phase 1 will start after the release of the Notice of Award, which is set to be given this week. The contractor must comply with all requirements to “perfect” the contract.

Package 1 will cover the following routes: Cebu South Bus Terminal on N. Bacalso Ave. going to the Cebu Provincial Capitol via Osmena Blvd.

Over the past few years, there has been a further delay of Cebu’s BRT due to multiple factors, such as changes in its design, routes, and road right-of-way (RROW). However, it will immediately proceed since there will no longer be any road widening or property acquisition in this portion of the 2.3-kilometer project.

The mayor instructed his executive secretary, Atty. Collin Rosell, to coordinate with the BRT Project Implementation Office in order to provide support during the eventual rollout.

Lapyahan sa San Remigio: Experience Cebu’s longest shoreline for free

1

There’s a very popular spot in northern Cebu that is a proof that not all white sand beaches have to be an expensive experience. The northern town of San Remigio, Cebu is a third class municipality that is known to tourists as the jump-off point to Bantayan Island.

Though there is so much more to San Remigio than just being the gateway to Bantayan. This town boasts of having the longest shoreline in the whole province of Cebu.

Lapyahan sa San Remigio is located in the town proper so it is quite easy to find. The local term “lapyahan” simply translates to “shoreline”. Aside from being the longest shoreline in Cebu, Lapyahan also takes pride in the long stretches of powdery white sand with a perfect sunset view. On top of all these, entrance is free!

Photo by Maistrang Laagan

Their shoreline is the town’s main attraction and it is in fact the highlight of their annual town fiesta which the locals call “Lapyahan Festival” and is celebrated every 16th of May.

Lapyahan sa San Remigio is a public beach so you get to experience some sunset watching while sitting on white sands or dipping in Lapyahan’s crystal clear waters without draining your budget. The water level is also very shallow on the first few meters of the beach so it’s very safe for children.

There are cottages nearby which you can rent out, but you can also just bring your own mats and lay it down on the sand to save on cottage fees. There’s also no problem with food and beverages because they have the nearby Kan-anan sa Lapyahan where you can buy barbecue, snacks, and drinks. There are also a lot of resorts nearby if you want to stay overnight.

The best time to visit Lapyahan is on the afternoon so you can get to see the sunset. This is one of the best spots in Cebu for such an experience.

Fees:

  • Entrance fee: FREE
  • Cottage fees: P200-P350 per day

17-year-old Cebuana artist conquers New York Times Square Billboard

During the pandemic, people were stuck indoors. We started to tune in to our hobbies, got glued to our screens, and listened to music more than ever. This is where people found solace during those somber days.

Photo from Mrld Facebook Page

Filipinos found more solace in our locally made songs since it uses our native language. As a result, more local talents surfaced. One of them is a Cebuana teenager but now based in Catbalogan, Samar.

Meriel de Jesus — more known by her stage name, mrld — has garnered almost 90 million streams on Spotify at the young age of 17. She scored viral with her first composition and release “An Art Gallery Could Never Be As Unique As You” in 2021, during the height of the pandemic.

Photo from Mrld Facebook Page

Ultimately, mrld became one of the featured artists on Spotify in May 2021 and was shown in the New York Times Square Billboard. She even finds it surreal that she was able to reach this milestone since she only started writing songs as a passion only when she was 14.

“Those numbers, they never went inside my head. All I really wanted was to release a song, kahit 10 people lang ang makikinig, it’s all good.”

mrld will have her first-ever live show at Social House in Makati City on October 28.

Showcasing your talents knows no limits, may it age and boundaries. This young Cebuana is living proof. However, you can only reach a breakthrough or milestone with hard work, not only sheer luck.
