One of the projects is the Bislig City Coastal Protection, which is intended to ensure that the populated area in the coastal part of the city is kept safe from calamities.

This project involves building of 480m road embankment covering the residential district of Mangagoy; bridge construction; bank and slope protection; and drainage infrastructure.

The second project covers the 889.172m Kahayag-Coleto Road. Once completed, this road will boost mobility and reduce costs of transporting basic commodities.

This road project also involves construction of a slope protection structure, guard rails, and crossing reinforced concrete pipe culvert (RCPC) as drainage.

DPWH secretary Roger G Mercado said, “We are fast-tracking these projects so that the people can benefit from them the soonest. Once completed, we can expect a more secure bay area, better road network and an improved way of life…”
