LEGAZPI CITY, Albay – The municipal government of Polangui in Albay province opened on Saturday, September 21, the P90-million Polangui Integrated Transport Terminal at the Diversion Road in Barangay Ubaliw.

Polangui Mayor Adrian Salceda said that the terminal is the most modern between Legazpi City in Albay and Naga City in Camarines Sur province.

MAYOR Adrian Salceda and Vice Mayor Cherry Mella Sampal inaugurate the newly constructed Polangui Integrated Transport Terminal on Saturday, September 21.

"The main goal was Polangui to have the most modern, pinakamaganda at pinaka-modernong terminal between Legazpi and Naga. Gusto ko magpasalamat unang-una sa tulong ng aking uncle, si Congressman Joey Salceda, kasi kung wala ang tulong niya hindi mangyayari itong Polangui Integrated Terminal," Mayor Salceda said.

(The main goal was Polangui to have the most modern, most beautiful, and most modern terminal between Legazpi and Naga. I would like to thank my uncle, Congressman Joey Salceda, for making this Polangui Integrated Terminal possible)

Salceda said that the Polangui Integrated Terminal was built with passenger's comfort in mind as it has features such as costumer care facility, restrooms, lactating area, and Persons with Disability (PWD) rest room.

The project was built by the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH)-Third Engineering District and funded by the General Appropriations Act (GAA) through the efforts of Rep. Joey Salceda. It was also constructed in time for the expiration of the present terminal’s contract in 2026.

Mayor Salceda added that the new terminal will unlock the town's ability to promote sustainable growth and inclusive development. It will also decongest traffic at the town's business center.

He added that they are planning to privatize the operation of the terminal.

Meanwhile, the local government of Polangui also inaugurated five multi-million government projects in Polangui worth a total of P380 million last week.

Lalaine Baldemoro, municipal engineer, said these were the P50-million farm-to-market road connecting Barangay Itaran to Sitio San Luis in Barangay Lourdes; P100-million FMR connecting Barangay Pintor to Barangay Quinartilan to Barangay La Purisima; P50-million Itaran Skills Training Center in Barangay Itaran; P50-million Sugcad Skills Training Center in Barangay Sugcad; and P40-million Ponso Skills Training Center in Barangay Ponso

Mayor Salceda said that they also held the groundbreaking ceremony for a P275-million FMR that connects Barangay Maysua to Barangay Balinad.
