BACOLOD City Mayor Monico Puentevella said Thursday that the city government has started to work on the establishment of the new north and south terminals with the private investor.

In a matter of weeks, the north terminal will be transferred to a new location which is just near the existing North Terminal being operated bybusinessman Crispin Chua.

For his part, Chua said he is not aware of the plan of the mayor to transfer the North Terminal.

"I have not known of a place that can be utilized as the next location of the North Terminal," he said.

Chua has signed a 25-year contract to build and operate the North Terminal starting 2010.

Moreover, Puentevella said the south terminal will be subject to a public bidding.

There are many investors who are interested to build the south terminal which is being eyed in Barangay Alijis, he said.
