AFTER several delays, the Department of Transportation is now targeting the start of the New Cebu International Container Port project implementation by the third quarter of 2024.In a text message to SunStar Cebu on Monday, July 1, Maryknoll Bolasa, information officer of the Cebu Port Authority , said the National Economic and Development Authority Board approved on June 25 the extension of the project’s implementation period until the second quarter of 2028.
As a design-and-build project, the winning bidder must submit their design first after the Notice to Proceed is issued, Bolasa added. The bidder will then build the NCICP, a port facility on a 25-hectare reclaimed land in Barangay Tayud, Consolacion.The project, however, was marred with delays as it was supposed to be finished by August 2022. Factors such as the Covid-19 pandemic and the lack of clearances reportedly contributed to the delay of the project implementation.
