matagumpay ang Metro
Pacific Tollways South
(MPT South), ang concessionaire para sa Manila-Cavite Expressway
(CAVITEX), ang C5 Link
segment nito, at ang
Cavite-Laguna Expressway (CALAX), sa paglulunsad ng magkakasunod
na Drayberks B.I.S.A (Buhay Ingatan, Sasakya’y Alagaan) Caravan katuwang
ang Cavite State University (CvSU) para sa selebrasyon ng Road Safety
Month noong Mayo. Layun
ng caravan na magbigay
kaalaman sa mga motorista patungkol sa road
safety: self-safety, vehicle
safety at road worthiness,
at ligtas na pagmamaneho.
Isinagawa ito
sa Paranaque Integrated Terminal Exchange
(PITX), SM City Bacoor,
at SM City Santa Rosa na
dinaluhan ng mga public
at private drivers, traffic
enforcers, mall goers, at
maging mga estudyante.
Ipinakita sa seminar ang
kahalagahan ng pag-aalaga ng sasakyan at pagtroubleshoot dito na mahalaga para sa kaligtasan
sa daan.
“Sa pamamagitan ng pagbibigay ng mahahalagang kasanayan at
kaalaman sa mga indibidwal, patuloy na naghahatid ng serbisyo ang MPT
South sa pagpapaunlad
ng kultura ng responsable at ligtas na pagmamaneho para sa lahat.
Ang tagumpay ng Drayberks B.I.S.A ay patunay
ng aming dedikasyon sa
pagbibigay-prioridad sa
kapakanan ng mga gumagamit ng kalsada at ng
mga komunidad na ating
pinagsisilbihan,” ani Mr.
Raul L. Ignacio, President
at General Manager ng
MPT South.
Umani ng papuri ang inisyatibo na ito ng
toll road company mula
sa mga local government
units at sa transport group
na ACTO (Alliance of Concerned Transport Organization). Ang pagkilala nito
ay nagpapatunay sa pagsisikap ng kumpanya, hindi lamang sa pagtitiyak ng
kaligtasan ng mga motorista sa kanilang kalsada,
kundi pati na rin sa pagpapalaganap ng kultura
ng kaligtasan sa mga nakapaligid na komunidad.
“As members of
the transport sector, we
face the daily vulnerability
of road traffic accidents as
we traverse the roads. We
extend our heartfelt appreciation to MPT South
for taking the initiative to
prioritize road safety and
instill its importance in the
minds of every driver. This
seminar proved invaluable in equipping our PUV
drivers with the necessary
knowledge and skills to
remain vigilant, prepared,
and prevent accidents that
can save the lives of every
passenger. We commend
MPT South for their commitment to a safer trans
portation environment for
all,” ani Alliance of Concerned Transport Organization (ACTO) National
President Liberty de Luna.
“The City Government of Bacoor expresses sincere gratitude
to MPT South for its unwavering support to the
Bacooreños. From donation drives to tourism
assistance and now this
road safety awareness
caravan, MPT South has
consistently been a valuable partner in uplifting
our community. This free
seminar is instrumental in
raising awareness among
our Bacooreños motorists
about the critical importance of maintaining their
vehicles in optimal condition for ensuring safety
on the roads. We stand
united with MPT South in
advocating for road safety and making our city a
safer place for everyone,”
mensahe ni Bacoor City
Mayor Strike Revilla.
“I would like to
acknowledge MPT South
for organizing this event in
observance of Road Safety Month this May. Thank
you for choosing the City
of Santa Rosa as venue
for your road safety caravan. Aptly called “Drayberks: Buhay Ingatan, Sasakya’y Alagaan (B.I.S.A.)
Caravan”, this initiative
attests to your company’s
dedication to promoting
road safety awareness.
This resonates with our
efforts in the City Government to have an efficient
transportation system.
And one way to achieve
that is to emphasize the
importance of safe driving
for the well-being of both
motorists and pedestrians.
That is why we are more
than happy, and I am sure
that is also the case for SM
City Santa Rosa, to partner with you on this endeavor for this means lives
will be saved. We do hope
that this collaboration between MPT South and the
City Government of Santa
Rosa will endure, allowing
us to work hand in hand in
creating a safer environment for our community.
With that said, we look
forward to more opportunities to work together so we
can make a significant impact in raising awareness
and fostering responsible
road behavior. Congratulations, MPT South, on the
success of this caravan.
Maraming salamat. Mabuhay po kayo!” mensahe ni
Santa Rosa City Mayor Arlene Arcillas.
Matapos ang
matagumpay na paglulunsad nito ngayong Road
Safety Month, plano ng
MPT South na ipagpatuloy
ang pag roll-out ng Drayberks B.I.S.A caravan sa
mga kalapit na komunidad
ng kanilang expressway
network at palawakin ito
patungo sa mas maraming
organisasyon at indibidwal.
Ang Drayberks,
isang award-winning social advocacy ng MPT
South, ay nakatuon sa
pagtuturo ng mga motorista tungkol sa kaligtasan
sa kalsada at pinapalakas
ang kanilang kakayahan
na magamit ang mga safety feature ng expressway.
Simula noong 2018, aktibong nakikipag-ugnayan
ito sa mga pangunahing
stakeholder at grupo sa
transportasyon upang ibahagi ang mahahalagang
paalala sa mga motorista ukol sa kaligtasan sa
daan.
Ang ‘Drayberks’
road safety advocacy ng
MPT South ay nakailalim
sa inisyatiba ng MPTC na
tinawag na “Mission: Road
Safety” kung saan nakapokus ito sa paghahatid
ng mga road safety awareness seminars at digital information campaigns para
sa mga motorista upang
masiguro ang ligtas na
pagdaan nito sa kahabaan
ng MPTC expressways
