(Photo by Jansen Romero / FILE PHOTO / MANILA BULLETIN) DILG Memorandum Circular (MC) No. 2020-145 states that areas under the modified general community quarantine (MGCQ) should fully enforce RCO 2.0 by January 15, which means the implementation of all components of road clearing.
The circular also states that full implementation includes the removal of road and sidewalk obstructions, conduct of road inventories, physical removal of road obstructions without prejudice to the property rights of the affected stakeholders, crafting and implementation of displacement plans, rehabilitation, and maintenance of cleared roads, and creation of a grievance mechanism.
LGUs under general community quarantine (GCQ) are expected to do a partial implementation of the RCO 2.0, which is limited to the actual or physical removal or abatement of road and sidewalk obstructions that are considered hazardous to motorists and pedestrians.
