The Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) has completed three local roads which it said will boost the agricultural development in the towns of Bongabon, Gabaldon, and Llanera in Nueva Ecija.
In a report to DPWH Secretary Manuel M. Bonoan said the improvement of a total of six-lane kilometers of road were completed by the two district engineering offices (DEOs) in Nueva Ecija.
In the town of Bongabon, the DPWH Nueva Ecija Second DEO has provided a much improved road access to the farming communities with the completion of the 2.38 lane kilometers of local road in Barangay Rizal.
The DPWH Nueva Ecija Second DEO assured the public of safer and convenient travels in Barangay Tagumpay, Gabaldon as 1.98 lane kilometers of road was raised that were previously ‘muddy’ during the rainy season.
Meanwhile, the DPWH Nueva Ecija First DEO had improved the condition of the 1.7 lane kilometer road that eased the transport of agricultural machinery to the farmlands in Barangay Bosque, Llanera.
Bonoan said the newly-paved roads are expected to further enhance the agricultural output in the said towns with better accessibility and efficient transport of farm products to the market centers in and beyond the boundaries of Nueva Ecija.
