DPWH rehabilitates Daang Maharlika to Magsaysay Blvd. exit

CALBAYOG CITY – The Department of Public Works and Highways Samar First District Engineering Office completes the P80 million road improvement project from Daang Maharlika (Toyota Calbayog) to Magsaysay Boulevard exit.

The project covers the rehabilitation of 2.64 lane kilometers of road including the construction of drainage structures. The previously 2-lane road is widened into four lanes to accommodate a continuous, smooth flow of traffic.

The travelling public can now enjoy a safer travel environment as some elevated parts of the road were also downgraded.

The road serves as an alternate route, allowing motorists to by-pass the traffic congestion along Daang Maharlika and providing them with direct access in and out of the city proper for motorists.
