Garcia raises the issue of traffic and potential loss of earnings, and the rush to complete construction at the new Sinulog festival location.
CEBU, Philippines – Cebu Governor Gwen Garcia threw a damper on preparations for the Sinulog Festival 2023, questioning the Cebu City government’s decision to make the South Road Properties the site of the January 15 festival highlight.on Monday, January 9, Garcia said choosing the SRP as festival site would cause massive problems for commuters coming from southern towns or those heading out of the city in that direction.
Residents have already expressed concerns over possible traffic congestion and the muddy terrain where the Sinulog festival would be held. “When you close off the SRP, I don’t think the Natalio Bacalso road can hold the volume of vehicles that regularly must travel to the south or come from the south,” Garcia said.
Garcia questioned the logistics of the event, what time the residents from the province are encouraged to be at the SRP venue, and even Cebu City’s holding capacity.
