In line with the City Environment Week celebration, officers of various Tricycle Operators and Drivers Associations (TODA) convened to reinforce their commitment to environmental sustainability at the Don Alejandro Acuña Yap Quiña Arts and Cultural Center, June 4.

The meeting focused on compliance with Republic Act 9003, also known as the Ecological Solid Waste Management Act of 2000, as well as Victorias City’s Solid Waste Management Ordinance.

RA 9003 mandates the adoption of systematic, comprehensive, and ecological solid waste management programs, while penalizing prohibited acts to ensure community participation and accountability.

Around 80 TODA officers participated in the meeting, affirming their role as vital stakeholders in advancing a cleaner and greener Victorias City.

Chief of the Victorias Traffic Authority Office, PEMS Joseph Rodrigo Olis, along with a representative from the City Legal Office Keziah Roa, were also in attendance.

Discussions emphasized the importance of maintaining cleanliness in TODA parking and terminal areas, encouraging TODA leaders to set an example in promoting proper waste disposal and instilling discipline among fellow drivers and commuters. *
