BACOLOD CITY — The major streets of this city have been cleared of 30.53 tons of tangled telecommunication and electrical wires that have become an eyesore to the public.
The Bacolod City Task Force on Spaghetti Wires, along with telecommunication companies and Central Negros Electric Cooperative, have cleared 30.53 tons of spaghetti wires along major streets in Bacolod starting July 16, said Bacolod Mayor Alfredo Abelardo Benitez said in his first 100 days’ report.
The wires that were collected will be donated to vegetable farmers in Barangay Alangilan and other beneficiaries for use in their production of vegetables.
Benitez said he is also working closely with Bacolod Councilor Al Victor Espino on plans to place telecommunication and electric wires underground.
