According to
Malay Municipal Engineer, Elezer Casidisid the ongoing road widening from the
national highway going to Tabon Port is indeed being rushed.
In fact he said
it is expected to be fnished next week.
If there had
been any delays in the construction this is because of the difficult negotiations
with owners of the lands affected by the said widening.
In line with
this, it is anticipated that only a side of the road can be extended as some
private land owners refused for their area to be covered.
Nonetheless
in order to resolve this narrow roadway, they will have the street gutter fixed
so that it would not be so difficult for the motorists.
Casidisid
however said that what they are doing is not really a widening but a
construction only and does not include the road protection, despite having
admitted that in some instances, parts of the road are affected by landslides.
Conversely this
explanation is opposite to what SB Member Rowen Aguirre's anticipation and
observation that has been voiced out to the council. It seems to him that there
is no urgency from the department which is supposed to be implementing the project.
For the
reason, he said, that the project has not been completed despite knowing the
fact that the Tabon Port would be busy during the Southwest Monsoon or Habagat
season.
