The Public Safety and Transportation Management Department (PSTMD) of the Caloocan City government conducted clearing operations at the Simon Flea Market and along the 10th Avenue area.
Various divisions of the PSTMD including its Special Task Force Disiplina (STFD), Traffic Management Division South, and Special Operations Group District I-B participated in clearing the said areas of sidewalk obstructions, illegal market vendors, and traffic violators.
City Mayor Dale Gonzalo Malapitan commended the PSTMD for the successful conduct of the clearing ops and noted the positive effects of the program in the safety and traffic management initiatives of the city.
The mayor also thanked the PSTMD for implementing the local government’s programs.
“Maraming salamat po sa PSTMD sa patuloy na pagsunod sa ating direktiba na linisin ang ating mga kalsada at mga eskinita. Batid po natin na marami pa rin po talagang makukulit na lumalabag sa ating mga batas-trapiko at mga ordinansa kaya sana po ay magsilbi na itong babala sa inyo,” the mayor stated.
Malapitan also called on his constituents to support the efforts of the PSTMD by taking the initiative to follow rules, instill discipline, and maintain cleanliness in their local communities.
“Ilaan po natin palagi ang mga bangketa para sa mga kababayan nating naglalakad. Huwag na po nating hintayin na mayroon tayong makitang maaksidente pa dahil sa mga nakaharang na kagamitan o sasakyan sa dapat na daanan ng mga pedestrian,” the local chief executive stated.
Aside from the clearing ops, the STFD of the PSTMD is also tasked to enforce the strict implementation of the Single-Ticketing System in Caloocan City.
