Through the directive of Hon. Mayor Nestor Archival, teams continue working on the ground to restore the drainage system's capacity and reduce flooding risks in the area.
Operations are ongoing.

110 sacks of spoils, with an estimated volume of 3.3 cu. m., cleared as DEPW continues its desilting and declogging operations at Brgy. Duljo Fatima, Tuslob Buwa, Iglesia.

Behind every cleared canal are long hours of work, teamwork, and people quietly doing their part.

Proud of what has been accomplished, but even more committed to what still needs to be done.

Salamat DEPW Team Lucernas!

Behind Every Clear Waterway Is Continuous Work

Through the directive of Hon. Mayor Nestor Archival, the Department of Engineering and Public Works (DEPW) continues its massive declogging operations as part of the City's sustained flood mitigation efforts.

Working quietly behind the scenes, DEPW personnel carry out the clearing of drainage lines and waterways to improve water flow and help reduce flooding in vulnerable communities.

These routine operations continue on the groundβ€”before and after heavy rainsβ€”because flood mitigation is built through consistent work, one waterway at a time.

2 August 2026 (Sunday)

Despite the continuing challenges posed by limited equipment access to certain sections of the river, the City Government, under the leadership of Hon. Mayor Nestor Archival, continues to press forward with massive declogging and manual desilting operations to improve water flow and reduce flood risks.

Where heavy equipment cannot yet safely reach, personnel on the ground carry out manual desilting and debris removal to ensure that clearing operations continue without delay. These behind-the-scenes efforts demonstrate that progress is not measured solely by machinery, but by the determination to keep waterways moving and communities protected.

Through the combined efforts of the Department of Engineering and Public Works (DEPW), the Department of Public Services (DPS), CCENRO, CESET, barangay officials, responders, and volunteers, work continues each day to clear waterways, one section at a time.

While challenges remain, every load of silt removed and every obstruction cleared is another step toward improving drainage capacity. The City Government remains committed to sustained, coordinated action as work continues in the areas that need it most.

Massive Bayanihan and Inter-Department Declogging Operations Reinforces Unified Flood Mitigation Efforts

Through the directive of Hon. Mayor Nestor Archival, the Department of Engineering and Public Works (DEPW) joined today's Massive Bayanihan Declogging Operation, conducted in coordination with the Department of Public Services (DPS), the CCENRO - Cebu City Environment and Sanitation Enforcement Team (CESET), the Office of the Chief of Staff led by Kenneth Siasar, barangay officials, community responders, and residents.

The operation was personally led and monitored by Hon. Mayor Nestor Archival underscoring the City's commitment to ensuring that flood mitigation efforts are carried out through active leadership, close coordination, and community participation.

Recognizing that flooding is a complex challenge that requires sustained action, the City continues to strengthen inter-agency collaboration and encourage the active involvement of local communities. Every cleared drainage line and waterway contributes to improving water flow and reducing flood risks, while each coordinated effort brings the City closer to more resilient communities.

The success of today's activity reflects the spirit of bayanihan - where government agencies, barangay officials, responders, and residents work together toward a common goal. Through continued cooperation, shared responsibility, and sustained action, flooding concerns can be addressed more effectively for the benefit of every Cebuano.

Nanawagan ang Cebu City Government sa tanang Sugbuanon nga motabang sa pagpugong sa pagbaha pinaagi sa pagpraktis sa saktong paglabay sa basura nunot sa pagbunok sa uwan nga nakaapekto sa pipila ka mga dapit sa dakbayan kagahapon.

Ang pag-inspeksyon human sa ulan nga gihimo sa siyudad nagpakita nga daghang drainage system, kanal, ug agianan sa tubig ang nabara sa mga plastik nga botelya, basura sa panimalay, ug uban pang mga basura, nga nagpugong sa pag-agos sa tubig ug nakatampo sa pagbaha sa daghang mga komunidad.

Agig tubag, ang Department of Engineering and Public Works (DEPW) mipahigayon dayon og declogging operations, paghawan sa mga nabara nga agianan sa tubig, ug pagtangtang sa toneladang basura gikan sa drainage system aron mahibalik ang agos sa tubig. Ang kagamhanan sa dakbayan nagkanayon nga ang susamang operasyon magpadayon sa mga lugar nga daling mabahaan isip kabahin sa ilang padayon nga pagpaminus sa baha.

Samtang ang siyudad nagpadayon sa pagpatuman sa drainage improvement projects ug regular nga pagpanglimpyo, gipasiugda sa mga opisyal nga kini nga mga lakang lang dili igo aron matubag ang pagbaha. Ang dili husto nga paglabay sa basura nagpabilin nga usa sa mga nag-unang hinungdan sa pagkabara sa mga agianan sa tubig ug pag-awas sa mga drainage system panahon sa kusog nga ulan.

Ang Cebu City Government niawhag sa mga residente sa hustong paglainlain ug paglabay sa ilang mga basura ug likayan ang paglabay sa mga basura ngadto sa mga kanal, estero, suba, ug uban pang agianan sa tubig. Ang mga barangay, negosyo, eskwelahan, ug mga organisasyon sa komunidad giawhag usab sa pag-apil sa regular nga mga kalihokan sa pagpanglimpyo ug pagpalambo sa responsableng pagdumala sa basura sulod sa ilang mga komunidad.

Samtang nagpadayon ang ting-ulan, nanawagan ang kagamhanan sa dakbayan sa matag Sugbuanon sa pagbuhat sa ilang bahin. Ang usa ka yano nga buhat sa paglabay sa basura sa hustong paagi, pagpabilin sa mga drainage system nga walay mga obstruction, ug pag-awhag sa uban sa pagbuhat sa ingon makahimo og dakong kalainan sa pagpakunhod sa risgo sa pagbaha ug pagpanalipod sa mga kinabuhi ug kabtangan.

Gihatagan og gibug-aton sa kagamhanan sa dakbayan nga ang pagpugong sa pagbaha usa ka responsibilidad. Pinaagi sa pagtinabangay ug pagbaton og responsibilidad alang sa kinaiyahan, matag Sugbuanon makatabang sa pagtukod og mas limpyo, luwas, ug mas lig-on nga dakbayan sa Sugbo subay sa iyang panglantaw nga mahimong Smart, Sustainable, ug Inclusive City.
