With the increasing number of confirmed COVID-19 cases in Butuan City, the Local Government Unit (LGU) proposed to the Regional Inter-Agency Task Force (R-IATF) the placement of 40 barangays in the City under Modified Enhanced Community Quarantine (MECQ).

If such proposal will be realized, all public transportation with routes touching Butuan City will be suspended, following Item 11, Section 3 of the Omnibus Guidelines on the Implementation of Community Quarantine set forth by the Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF). This suspension is also in faithful compliance to the issuances of the Department of Transportation (DOTr) and Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB) regarding the operations of Public Utility Vehicles (PUVs) under MECQ.

Moreover, while PUV operations are suspended, government offices and business establishments may tap PUV operators to shuttle their employees during the whole duration of MECQ. Conversely, PUV operators may negotiate with government offices and business establishments to convert their fleet into shuttle services for affected employees and workers.
