00:00The BPWH is trying to get rid of the debris after a landslide in Talisay, Cebu.
00:08This is the story of Jesse Atienza of PTV Cebu.
00:18The backhoe and payloaders are constantly moving
00:22on the rugged part of the road that is blocking the entire road in Barangay Manitis, Talisay City, Cebu.
00:31Later in the day, several residents crossed the road that is blocking the road.
00:37While the clearing operation is being carried out,
00:41here at Unahan ng Konte, we can see a series of dump trucks
00:47that will be used to collect debris, soil, and rocks
00:54due to the landslide that happened here in Barangay Campo 4.
01:01The residents are lucky that no tourists were affected by the landslide.
01:08According to the resident, Myrna, they woke up early in the morning at 3 am
01:14when they heard a loud noise.
01:16If you look at the road, you can't see the road.
01:21You can't see the road from here.
01:24In the morning?
01:25In the morning, we can see the road.
01:29There are cars that park here.
01:32It's a lot of debris.
01:35According to the DPWH, this landslide has not changed in the area.
01:39But one of the reasons for the landslide
01:43is the impact of the landslide that hit Lalawiga last Sunday.
01:48The number of cubic meters of landslide is more or less 10,000 to 15,000 cubic meters.
01:55So, it's possible, but with this condition,
02:02the volume is quite large.
02:06We'll try our best to carry out the operation 24-7.
02:12Often, motorists pass through the narrow road
02:15to make it faster to cross the cities of Talisay and Toledo.
