Cebu Commuters Turn to Angkas to Survive Cebu Traffic Gridlocks
With Metro Cebu traffic getting worse by the day, more Cebuanos have turned to Angkas, the leading motorcycle taxi ride-hailing service, to survive the daily gridlocks and reach their destinations on time.
In a recent study by the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA), the unresolved traffic congestion in Metro Cebu has resulted in at least P1.1 billion in economic losses a day. And this is exactly the reason why Angkas is a timely solution to alleviate the commuting problems of Cebuanos.
“Angkas is an innovative and timely traffic solution that Cebuanos need and we are happy to offer this service to help commuters reach their destinations in a fast, convenient, and affordable way,” said Angeline Tham, Angkas Founder and CEO.
Angkas is also the safest form of public transportation. Their biker-partners are strictly screened and are given thorough safety training before being allowed to service passengers. With safety on their mind, bikers and their passengers are also entitled to an insurance in every trip.
To ensure the safety of the biker-partners and their passengers, Angkas held the very first “Angkas Safety Fiesta” in Cebu last September15 at the Plaza Independencia, Cebu City. The 12-hour event, which started at 10 a.m., featured a safety seminar and skills training session for their biker-partners, a dental mission, free haircut and massage for the participants, and a Gymkhana tournament. The event also served as an onboarding activity for new Angkas biker-partners, with the objective of being able to service more Cebuano commuters at a time.
With over 5,000 biker-partners in Metro Cebu, Angkas is definitely a huge help to Cebuanos by not only providing an efficient transport option, but also providing a decent means of livelihood for motorcycle owners.
