The construction of a new 4.52-kilometer concrete road leading to Sitio Ulayanon, Malaybalay City from a town proper is now 89 percent completed, according to DPWH Region 10 Director Zenaida Tan.
It will be finished just in time for summer, Tan added.
The Malaybalay-Gingog Road project is implemented under a P167-million fund. The regional director said "it is ahead of its completion rate by 33 percent."
Once completed, the concrete road traversing Gingoog City-Kalhaan, Claveria-Bulonay-Malaybalay City, will provide better access from Bulonay proper to Sitio Ulayanon.
“Some areas in Malaybalay are only accessible through limited public transport. Only light vehicles can pass through,” Public Works and Highways Secretary Mark Villar said in a statement.
“The new two-lane concrete road will give convenience to new commuters and at the same time would open more opportunities for the locals in the remote area because of faster travel,” Villar added.
