The Land Transportation Office (LTO) in Bayugan City refers to the lone LTO office based in Bayugan, Agusan del Sur: the LTO Bayugan District Office (DO). Like the other LTO branches in the Philippines, the LTO Bayugan District Office (DO) was also created so the agency can offer fast, convenient, accessible, and affordable LTO services to the people. With the LTO office in Bayugan, Agusan del Sur, the agency can better monitor and regulate the local and visiting drivers, car owners, and operators, as well as the vehicle use on public roads and the entire land transport service in Bayugan City and its geographical area of responsibility (GAOR). The LTO, through this branch office, also maintains its presence as a regulatory force in the local land transport sector and ensures that its core programs and services reach the Agusanons—both drivers, operators, and pedestrians—whom they want to keep safe.
With an LTO office in Bayugan City, the “cut-flower capital” of the province located in the northern part of Agusan del Sur, the agency can serve the locals better. Its climate, especially in the highland barangays, is conducive to high yield cut-flower production, which is the main driver of its lucrative cut-flower industry. The city is also one of the major producers of rice and vegetables in the entire province, as well as in the neighboring municipalities and provinces, making it an important place in the region and an ideal home for local government offices like the LTO in these parts.
