CALBAYOG CITY – The
Department of Public Works and Highways Samar First District
Engineering Office initiated the Road Right-of-Way (RROW) Patrol
last January 29, 2018.
The creation of the RROW
Patrol is a result of District Engineer Alvin Ignacio’s pledge,
during a consultative meeting held last month with Congressman Edgar
Sarmiento and other stakeholders to maintain the Right-of-Way limit
along National Roads.
The RROW Patrol Team,
composed of six (6) maintenance personnel including the team leader
and driver, goes on field every day from 8:30AM to 5:00PM to check,
monitor, take pictures and record new RROW prohibited activities.
They cover all National Roads within the District: Calbayog-Allen
Road; Calbayog-Catbalogan Road; Calbayog-Catarman Road and Calbayog
Diversion Road.
”Our primary goal is to
remove all obstructions along our National Roads, which includes the
removal of illegally parked vehicles as well as to stop the erection
of any future obstructions. We want our roads to be cleared to
prevent accidents and provide motorists with safer travel
conditions,” said RROW Patrol Team Leader Elejor Villena.
