Cebu City — Following LTO Region 7’s intensified law enforcement campaign, the LTO Operations Division on N. Bacalso Avenue experienced a major surge in visitors, averaging 350 to 400 transactions daily.

Combined with system offline issues and rotational power outages, this surge caused notable inconvenience to our transacting public. Our office suffered from inadequate air conditioning, long processing times of 1 to 2 hours, and sub-standard restroom facilities.

Taking swift corrective action, LTO Region 7 Regional Director Wendel C. Dinglasan directed Operations Division to immediately install of four additional high-capacity air-conditioning units and a comprehensive review of frontline process flows.

Key Improvements Implemented:
1. Dramatically Reduced Processing Times: Settlement transactions now take 5 minutes or less to process, with total turn-around times capped at 10 minutes.
2. Enhanced Facility Comfort: Climate-control capacity has been expanded to maintain a comfortable ambient temperature for over 100 seated clients simultaneously.
3. Anti-Red Tape & Anti-Fixer Initiatives: Streamlined workflows directly eliminate operational bottlenecks that fixers historically exploited.

We recognize that long delays invite fixers and illicit activity.These problems are now a thing of the past in the NEW OPERATIONS DIVISION.

The improvements will continue. The Operations Division comfort rooms are set to undergo rehabilitation to provide a cleaner and more comfortable space for the transacting public. The project is currently awaiting the release of funding, which is expected in the coming days, after which the rehabilitation works will proceed.

CEBU CITY — Amidst the challenges posed by continuous fuel price hikes, the Land Transportation Office (LTO) reaffirmed its core commitment to serving the public beyond basic law enforcement.

While conducting routine operations along the highways of Cebu City, an LTO Law Enforcement Team spotted a modern public utility vehicle (PUV) in distress. The driver—already struggling to navigate the financial strain of soaring fuel costs—was stranded on the roadside due to a flat tire.

Demonstrating initiative and compassion, the officers stepped in without hesitation to assist the driver and help him get back on the road safely.

This simple act serves as a reminder that genuine public service goes beyond official mandates and deputation orders; it is driven by a willing heart and a capable hand.

Sa patuloy na pagtaas ng presyo ng langis na dagdag-hamon sa mga motorista at transport workers, nananatiling nakatuon ang Land Transportation Office Region VII (LTO 7) sa pagpapanatili ng kaligtasan sa kalsada, habang kinikilala at nauunawaan ang kasalukuyang sitwasyong kinakaharap ng publiko.

Sa halip na agarang mahigpit na apprehension sa bawat pagkakataon, isinasagawa ng mga LTO Law Enforcers ang friendly flag-downs upang maayos na mapaalalahanan ang mga motorista tungkol sa mga batas trapiko, wastong pagmamaneho, at kahalagahan ng pagsunod sa road safety rules.

Bahagi rin ng operasyon ang pagbibigay ng paliwanag, gabay, at edukasyon sa mga driver upang makatulong na maiwasan ang mga paglabag at mapanatiling ligtas ang lahat ng gumagamit ng kalsada.

Ayon kay Regional Director Atty. Wendel C. Dinglasan, nauunawaan ng LTO 7 ang mga hamon na kinakaharap ngayon ng mga driver at transport workers dahil sa mataas na presyo ng langis. Kaya naman, hangga’t maaari, layunin ng ahensya na maging katuwang sa pamamagitan ng edukasyon, paalala, at pag-unawa, habang patuloy na itinataguyod ang kaligtasan sa kalsada.

Quezon National Highway, Sitio Masiwa, Barangay Marigondon, Lapu-Lapu City.

Ayon sa Spot Report, naglalakad sa gilid ng kalsada ang tatlong pedestrian nang sila ay mabangga ng naturang sasakyan na nagtatangkang mag-overtake sa isang tricycle-for-hire. Dahil sa insidente, tumilapon ang tatlong pedestrian sa konkretong kalsada at nagtamo ng mga pinsala. Agad na umalis sa lugar ang sasakyan nang hindi huminto upang tingnan ang kalagayan o magbigay ng tulong sa mga nasugatan.

Dahil dito, inatasan ng LTO 7 ang registered owner at designated driver na humarap sa Operations Division at magsumite ng Sworn Comment/Explanation upang ipaliwanag ang kanilang panig at sagutin ang mga alegasyon.

Paalala ng LTO 7 na ang bawat motorista ay may pananagutang maging maingat sa kalsada at huminto, tumulong, at makipag-ugnayan sa awtoridad kapag nasangkot sa isang aksidente.
