The ban, implemented in coordination with the Mayor’s Office, Department of Public Works, and Fire Department, is in place until further notice.
Only essential workers providing critical services in infrastructure, public health, and safety are permitted to travel. Officials emphasize the importance of limiting non-essential movement to allow emergency crews to manage the situation effectively.

Residents are advised to stay indoors, monitor updates, and prepare for potentially extended restrictions.
