Power firm to finish underground cabling projects in Davao by ’29A subsidiary of Aboitiz Power Corp. has committed to complete its underground cabling projects here by 2029.
Davao City’s Ordinance 0177-14 Series of 2014 mandates distribution utility and telecommunication companies to place all their electrical and telecommunication wires and cables underground. Initially, the project has four phases that are expected to be delivered by 2020. However, due to the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic, Davao City extended the deadline for another nine years.
“The target areas defined under this ordinance are under the ‘Kadayawan Route’. The majority of these streets are the highlight areas during major Kadayawan events like the Indak-Indak and Floral Float parades. These areas were chosen based on their historic and economic significance,” Davao Light project lead and design engineer Prince Rainier Yamyamin said.
