At least four national roads in Luzon were rendered impassable after super typhoon "Karding" unleashed its fury on Sunday, Sept. 26.
In a statement, the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) said the affected roads were in the Cordillera Administrative Region, Central Luzon and Region 4-A.
"These roads were temporarily-closed to traffic due to the typhoon," the statement read.
Citing its monitoring on the ground, the DPWH said those affected were the Kennon Road in Benguet which was closed to non-residents for safety reasons and two roads in Aurora.
The Nueva Ecija-Aurora Road, K0174+300 section was closed due to landslide while the Concepcion - Lapaz K0131+300 due to fallen electric post.
The Ternate - Nasugbu Road, K0068+(-1000) K0074+622 in Cavite was also closed for safety reasons.
Meanwhile, due to major landslides and rockslides, the Manila North Road K0578+800 section in Sitio Banquero, Brgy. Pancian, Pagudpud has been reduced to a one-lane passable road.
"DPWH Quick Response Teams have already installed warning signs and barricades along affected road sections. A clearing operation is also ongoing along sections that are deemed safe," the statement read.
