DPWH to implement P5.6-B road projects in Central Luzon
SAN FERNANDO, Pampanga, Philippines – The Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) in Region 3 will implement P5.6 billion worth of infrastructure projects this year to stimulate countryside development and boost the tourism industry in Central Luzon.
DPWH assistant regional director Loreta Malaluan said the projects consist of the construction, upgrade, reconstruction and improvement of national roads.
Malaluan cited the repair and rehabilitation of the Clark-Angeles-Magalang road and the Friendship Highway in Clark as part of the Department of Tourism-DPWH convergence project.
She said the project aims to improve the roads leading to Clark International Airport.
She said all the DPWH projects implemented in 2012 are also expected to be finished this year. These include the widening of the Angeles-Mabalacat road, improvement of road projects in Tarlac and Bulacan and the repair of the San Fernando-Sto. Tomas-Minalin tail dike, which was destroyed by floods at the height of Habagat in August last year.
