Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) Biliran District
Engineering Office (DEO) has already started its CY 2017 Regular

projects out of 52 projects below P50M are already on its full swing.
Among these projects are repair of six (6) bridges and extension of
two (2) flood control structures.
DPWH-Biliran DEO have also
started project implementation on Turn-out (loading and unloading
bays) in Kawayan,Biliran and Widening of Naval to Caibiran Cross
Country Road specifically within the limits of Capiñahan, Naval,
Biliran and the Municipality of Kawayan.
The usual flooding that
occurs along Sanggalang Highway will no longer be a problem since the
project on rehabilitating the road and reconstructing a larger
reinforced box culvert has already commenced. Soon this problem will
just be a thing of the past.
These projects are just the
start and 19 more projects are expected to start on April this year.
Soon, DPWH-Biliran DEO will be able to begin full implementation on
the remaining projects and take up the challenge of completing these
infrastructures before this year ends.
