TACLOBAN CITY—The Department of Public Works and Highways – Tacloban City District Engineering Office (DPWH-TCDEO) rehabilitates a portion of the Diit-San Roque Road, completed on November 6, 2024.
Spanning a total length of 0.213 lane kilometer, the project involved the construction of a Portland Concrete Cement Pavement (PCCP), the provision of stone masonry for slope protection, and the inclusion of a concrete barrier to enhance road stability and safety. The rehabilitation also ensures that the current condition of the road can withstand heavy traffic loads and adverse weather conditions.
Funded through the 2024 General Appropriations Act (GAA) with a total contract amount of P4.8 million, the project is expected to bring significant benefits to motorists and residents in the area, such as enhanced accessibility for communities relying on the Diit-San Roque route and support for local economic activities by facilitating the efficient movement of goods and services.
District Engineer Rebecca G. Yuse said, “I’m glad that this project has been completed, as this will improve road safety and durability, which is important for everyone who uses it every day. It will also help the community in general by improving travel and making it easier to move goods.”
