NAGA CITY — Roads near the University of Nueva Caceres in this city were temporarily closed Friday as the first digitalized and localized Bar examination began to take place there.
The university serves as one of the test venues outside Manila.
City officials issued an advisory to guide motorists on the road closure, which began at 12:01 a.m. and would end at 7 p.m.
The police were also deployed Friday and Sunday to provide security during the licensure exam.
The city government assured the public that orderly traffic flow would be maintained, while the road closure is implemented.
The 2020-2021 Bar examination had been canceled at the onset of the pandemic in 2020. It was rescheduled on Jan. 23 and 25, but these had to be reset again after some examinees got sick or were taking care of the sick, or under quarantine due to COVID-19 exposure.
