BONG NEBRIJA BAGONG TRAFFIC MANAGER NG MMDA

ITINALAGA  bilang bagong traffic manager ng Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) si Task Force Special Operations, Bong Nebrija para pamunuan  ang EDSA na idineklarang “traffic discipline zone.”

Pinalitan ni Nebrija si Chief Traffic Inspector Rodolfo Calpito bilang head ng EDSA Special Traffic and Transport Zone dahil magreretiro na ito ngayong buwan.

“Starting Monday, Mr. Bong Nebrija will have a new big role – managing traffic along EDSA. Bong is a big loss to the task force but we need the kind of personality that he has on how to discipline road users and inspire traffic enforcers along EDSA,” ayon kay MMDA General Manager Jojo Garcia.

Si Nebrija na ang may  “full authority” na may kaugnayan  sa  engineering ng  EDSA.

Ayon naman kay Nebrija mahigpit niyang  ipatutupad  ang  batas trapiko lalo na sa EDSA.

“We need to address whole caboodle of problems along EDSA. To do this, we need the cooperation of road users – pedestrians, drivers, private motorists. There should be full enforcement of the law,” ani Nebrija.

Itatalaga rin  ni Nebrija ang nasa  427 traffic enforcers  sa EDSA na may tatlong shifts.

“There will be a high visibility of enforcers, IACT (Inter-Agency Council for Traffic) and HPG (Highway Patrol Group) on EDSA. We are advocating for cooperation and discipline. There is no magic here. It is not an easy task but we are not backing up on the assignment given to us,” sabi ni  Nebrija.

Samantala, sina traffic officials Memel Roxas at  Jun Vialu  ang itinalaga namang  team leaders ng  Task Force Special Opera-tions.    MARIVIC FERNANDEZ
