Due to the scheduled transport strike by public utility jeepneys, organized by Pistonrama, an affiliate of the Manibela group, from 5:00 AM to 5:00 PM on Tuesday, 25 March 25, Mayor Crisostomo Garbo has declared the suspension of classes in all public and private schools at all levels.
The local government encourages private employees to consider carpooling and advises companies to utilize shuttle services during the strike period to ensure a safe and efficient commute.
Additionally, all TODAs (Tricycle Operators and Drivers Associations) in Mabalacat City are reminded to follow the proper tricycle fare matrix and refrain from taking advantage of passengers during this time.
Mayor Garbo also requests that all Punong Barangays mobilize barangay vehicles to assist with essential transportation needs and serve the community effectively.
