The South Road Properties (SRP) is a 300-<br />

hectare prime property development project on a<br />

reclaim ed land located a few metres off the coast<br />

of Cebu's central business district. It is a mixeduse<br />

development that will feature entertainment,<br />

leisure, residential and business-processing<br />

industries.It is registered with the Philippine<br />

Economic Zone Authority (PEZA) and is funded<br />

by the Japan Bank for International<br />

Cooperation(JBIC). Traversing the property is a<br />

12 kilometres, four-lane highway known as the<br />

Cebu Coastal Road that provides the motorists<br />

with a good view of Cebu's south coast and the<br />

nearby island of Bohol.<br />

Mactan-Cebu International Airport<br />

Telecommunication facilities, broadband and<br />

wireless internet connections are available and<br />

are provided by some of the country's largest telecommunication companies.<br />

In the 1990s the Inayawan Sanitary Landfill was constructed to ease garbage disposal<br />

within the city. It is however nearing its lifespan although the Provincial Government is<br />

planning to build two sanitary landfills to serve both the northern and southern parts of<br />

Metro Cebu including Cebu City. In June 2005, the city fully implemented the segregation<br />

of wastes as mandated by law.<br />

Mass transportation throughout the city and the metropolitan itself is provided by jeepneys,<br />

buses and taxis. The Cebu City Government conducted a feasibility study on implementing<br />

its Bus Rapid Transit System that will ease the transportation of the residents in the<br />

city and its neighboring cities like Mandaue, Lapu-Lapu, and Talisay. It has the same<br />

concept with the Metro Manila's Light Railway Transit System but it is more cost<br />

effective. This kind of mass transportation is popular in the Latin America and now it is<br />

implemented in the United States, Australia, and Indonesia. The project's first phase is<br />

expected to be operational in 2013. The remaining and additional phases is expected to be<br />

operational in 2015. The network will be passing to the Cebu Business Park, North<br />

Reclamation Area, South Road Properties, and Mactan-Cebu International Airport.<br />
