Traveling from one village to another in Gutalac, Zamboanga del Norte had been made easier as a P6-million road leading to four neighboring villages was recently completed, the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) said.

“Farmers and residents are now reaping the benefits of a farm-to-market road completed by the DPWH in Barangay Canupong, Gutalac, Zamboanga del Norte,” Public Works and Highways Secretary Mark Villar said in a statement.

According to DPWH Zamboanga del Norte 2nd District Engineer Romeo Sadalaga, the P6-million farm-to-market project involved the construction of a 380-meter road with five-meter wide carriageway with a 20-centimeter thick concrete pavement. “This road hastens the mobilization and transportation of locals’ farm produce to market centers in the city, thus improving socio-economic activities in the area,” Villar added.

The newly-constructed road, the secretary said, will also serve as a safer and faster route for around 3,600 locals going to and from the Barangays of Canupong, Panganuran, Bayanihan, and Tipan. “We hope to provide more farm-to-market roads in Zamboanga del Norte which has devoted most of their lands for planting agricultural products such as banana, corn, coconut, sugarcane, and palay.” Villar ended.
