Quezon City — Mayor Joy Belmonte led an on-site inspection of the Litex Market along Commonwealth Avenue to address key issues affecting the area, including traffic congestion, public safety, and the regulation of sidewalk vendors.
The inspection aimed to assess current conditions and identify both immediate and long-term solutions to improve the flow of traffic, enhance pedestrian safety, and streamline vendor operations within and around the market.
“This is part of our continuing efforts to create a safe and efficient public market environment where both vendors and buyers can thrive,” Belmonte said.
The mayor was joined by District 2 Action Officer Atty. Bong Teodoro, Market Development and Administration Department (MDAD) representative Col. Alex Alberto, and Traffic and Transport Management Department (TTMD) official Dexter Cardenas during the walkthrough.
Belmonte reiterated the city government’s commitment to inclusive and sustainable development, emphasizing that any reforms will aim to balance the needs of vendors with the welfare of the general public.
Follow-up actions and improvements are expected to be rolled out in the coming weeks in coordination with concerned departments.
