BALANGA CITY (PIA) — Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) completed the improvement of a road leading to tourism destinations at barangay Tala in Orani, Bataan.

The P14.6 million project includes paving of a 350-linear meter section of the Mulawin-Tala Road.

DPWH Bataan 1st District Engineer Erlindo Flores Jr. said it also covers the concreting of road shoulders with a total length of 2,659 linear meters.

“Tourists and residents traveling to see the green mountains of Tala can benefit from the improved road in terms of safety as emergency lanes are now provided for vehicles that may need to be repaired unexpectedly,” he added.

Concrete highway shoulders can also provide a safe place for bikers.

Apart from improving traffic safety, the completed project is likewise seen to boost economic activities and provide more livelihood opportunities for Tala residents as an influx of tourists is expected with the improvement of the road leading to Bataan National Park.

DPWH is committed to the continuous improvement of various roads to make tourism destinations more accessible which in turn stimulates economic activity.
