+ May 26, 2021 THE Sugbo Bike Lanes Board (SBLB) deputized its third batch of bike patrollers, which consists of 30 bikers, who will be deployed this week to monitor and ensure compliance with safety and traffic laws in Cebu City’s bike lanes.
Like the first and second batches, the third batch was also trained and tested for their aptitude in traffic laws related to the safe and efficient use of bike lanes, said the Cebu City Public Information Office.
SBLB Chairman Gerry Carillo said that the first two batches with 20 bike patrollers per batch have already completed their training.

File photo March 02, 2021 THE Sugbo Bike Lanes Board (SBLB) urged barangays in Cebu City to help enforce and increase public awareness on the use of the city’s bike lanes.
“The lack of public awareness on the guidelines and utilization of the bike lanes has led to vehicles parking on them for long periods, creating road blockages for bikers,” said SBLB in a press statement.
This recommendation is part of the initial findings of the board after the first phase of the creation of bike lanes in Cebu City was launched last year.
Mobility lane
SBLB is looking into the possibility of modifying bike lanes into a mobility lane, wherein all forms of small and non-motorized travel modes of travel can be accommodated.
