THE City Engineering Office on May 18 has started serving notices to vendors along Zamora Street in front of CentroMart asking them to voluntarily dismantle their illegal extensions and other forms of obstructions as the city is bent on clearing the streets from ambulant vendors and other road obstructions.

The campaign is in line with the city’s strict implementation of cleanliness and orderliness which is aimed at freeing the streets from trash, foul odor, illegal parking and ambulant vendors.

It can be recalled that Mayor Belen T. Fernandez has long been encouraging ambulant vendors to conduct their trade inside the public market in order not to obstruct the flow of traffic in the streets like Zamora Street.

The City Engineering Office along with the Anti-Littering Office is tasked to closely monitor the area to deter ambulant vendors from coming back.

On the same day, personnel from the Waste Management Division conducted water flushing in the area to wash away the foul odor that had pervaded the area.

The notice to dismantle also includes the removal of extended roofs and canopy and the placing of tables in the street. (Joseph C. Bacani/CIO)
