Butuan – The Department of Public Works and Highways Region 11 expected to complete major infrastructure projects by the end of June 2009.
Latest report released by DPWH Davao revealed, in the first 3 months of 2009 infrastructure projects reached to a whooping 3.6 billion pesos.
In a statement released by DPWH Regional Director Osop Ali, Region 11 received more than 3billion pesos to fund the 106 infrastructure projects, all of which considered a priority of the Arroyo Administration.
A large portion of the said fund was allocated to finish the projects promised by President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo in last years’ State of the Nation Address.
Statuses of the project according to Director Ali are near completion within the current year.
Included in the President’s SONA is the on-going Surigao-Davao coastal road and the Kapalong-Talaingod-Valencia road that paves way for an alternate route for Bukidnon and Davao.
All these projects are part of the pump priming activities of the government to cushion the impact brought about by the global challenges.
“As soon as these major infrastructure projects will be completed in December 2009, as the scheduled target completion date of all SONA projects, all farmers, businessmen and even passengers will greatly benefit,” said Director Ali.
It is hoped that the Kapalong-Talaingod-Valencia road project cuts travel time by one-half for those traveling from Davao del Norte, Compostela Valley and Davao Oriental.
Part of the released report by DWH-XI is the rehabilitation of Compostela Valley route, more particularly the Monkayo-Diwalwal road costing 92.8 million pesos.
