APO Cement agrees to change truck delivery times

Cemex Philippines' APO Cement plant has agreed to stop the movement of its delivery trucks during peak hours of the day to help address the traffic problem in Naga City, according to Gwendolyn F Garcia, Cebu Governor.

The cement producer agreed to change its routines following a meeting when it was decided Cemex could adjust transport operations between 07.00-09.00hrs and 13.00-19.00hrs to avoid obstructing traffic along the national highway.

"I said we've been having so many meetings… and this has been taxing already on those who are using this national road," said Ms Garcia.
