Dancing Traffic Enforcers Project

The City Mayor’s Office (CMO) of General Santos, through Assistant City Administrator Glennville Gonzales, launched today its Dancing Traffic Enforcers Project. The program, initiated for the first time in the city, aims to give the riding public a respite from the day’s hassles especially in rush hours. This was also initiated by the CMO to give extra challenge to the traffic enforcers, and as a form of exercise as well. Each traffic enforcer was issued a portable music player (MP3) to use while on road duty.
The launching was held at the Oval Plaza Covered Court during the Flag Raising Ceremonies, and was witnessed by a mesmerized city government officials including a very pleased City Mayor Darlene Antonino-Custodio. The first batch of 14 agile dancing traffic enforcers demonstrated a sample of their moves to the tune of “Beat It” by Michael Jackson. The traffic enforcers were then personally congratulated by Mayor Antonino-Custodio.
The first shift of dancing traffic enforcers was deployed Monday, January 24, from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. Regular shift hours will follow on Tuesday starting at 6:00 a.m to 8:00 a.m., and at 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.. The traffic enforcers were assigned to heavy traffic areas where no traffic lights system are in place yet:
