Free public transportation was launched in Cebu City on Tuesday to help commuters during peak hours. The initiative, deployed by the city government, offers free rides from 6 a.M. To 8 p.M. The service aims to reduce traffic congestion and provide an affordable option for residents.

The free bus service covers key routes within the city, connecting major residential and commercial areas. Officials hope the move will encourage more people to use public transport instead of private vehicles. This is part of a broader effort to improve urban mobility and sustainability.

The program is expected to benefit thousands of daily commuters, particularly those who rely on public transport for work and school. No immediate reports of disruptions or issues have been noted. The city government has not announced plans for an extension or expansion of the service.

The initiative reflects growing interest in sustainable urban planning and public infrastructure in Cebu. Officials have emphasized the importance of accessible and affordable transportation for all citizens.
