GENERAL LUNA, Siargao Island, Surigao del Norte – The Department of Public Works and Highways-Caraga has completed the widening of the Junction National Road-Antipolo-Tuboran-Quezon-Mabini Road on this island.

“The recent completion of the road-widening project will definitely ensure ease in mobility of Siargaonons and goods especially the mobility of tourists in that beautiful island,” Delos Santos added.
