CLARK FREEPORT —A newly upgraded road leading to the Clark International Airport and the future Clark Multi-Specialty Medical Center is expected to ease traffic and support development in this freeport.
Clark Development Corp. under the leadership of Atty. Agnes VST Devanadera recently completed a P126-million improvement project along Prince Balagtas Avenue, covering a 3.8-kilometer northbound stretch. The road now features a dual carriageway, sidewalks, drainage system, curbs and gutters, a designated bike lane, streetlights, and thermoplastic road markings.
The intersection with Panday Pira Road was also reconfigured into a roundabout to improve traffic flow, particularly for trucks exiting a nearby quarry.
“This avenue leads to the Clark International Airport and the upcoming Clark Multi-Specialty Medical Center,” said Atty. Devanadera. “This is a project not only for Clark as an ecozone, but also for the surrounding community. It supports mobility for locators, investors, residents, and visitors.”
CDC construction management division manager Rogelio Magat said the work included reinforcing utility poles, relocating the 69 kV transmission line, and moving the gate of Marcos Village to prevent traffic obstruction.
An ongoing Clark North Gate project along the same avenue is also expected to enhance security at the freeport’s entrance.
The road upgrade is seen to reduce congestion and improve accessibility for locators, workers, and nearby communities, while promoting connectivity across the area. CDC-PR
