Development of South District Complex Gains Pace Ahead of Old Market Overhaul

The development of the South District Complex is a strategic step in Butuan City’s urban transformation, focusing on decentralizing operations and supporting the southern barangays’ growth. By accelerating this project, the local government ensures that essential services continue without disruption during the rehabilitation of the old public market. This complex will not only reduce congestion in the city center but also improve inter-agency coordination, disaster response capabilities, and data connectivity.

The new complex, located strategically beside the upcoming public market and transport hub, will act as a governance center for the southern zone, ensuring accessibility and operational efficiency during the city’s ongoing transition. The rapid rollout of this infrastructure underlines Butuan’s commitment to modernization, resilience, and investment-readiness.

With a timeline designed to have the complex partially operational alongside the new public market’s opening, the project serves as a key element in the city’s long-term development plan, providing continuity in business operations and reinforcing Butuan’s position as a growing hub for governance and commerce in the region.
