What was once a rough, unpaved road in the interiors of Baganga is now making a difference in uplifting the lives of the residents in the area.

With a rating of 89.27%, garnering the highest score among the 8 district offices of DPWH XI, Davao del Sur 1st District Engineering Office was adjudged as the “2015 Outstanding District Engineering Office of Region XI” for its sterling accomplishments, effective and efficient delivery of public service vis-a-vis the Department’s Mission, Vision and Core Values, and the realization of core process of Planning, Construction, Maintenance and Quality Control.
Among the major projects of Davao del Sur 1st DEO for CY 2015 is the widening of the Digos-Makar road, a major carriage way in the southern part of Mindanao.
Situated in the city of Digos, the road serves the people of the Davao del Sur and the Socsksargen area. Due to some portions that needed to be repaired and the significant increase in vehicular and pedestrian traffic, the District Office decided to repair some portions and widen the said road.
The Department of Public Works and Highways Region XI ended CY 2015 with 607 accomplished infra projects. The impressive accomplishments so far have been realized under the leadership of Regional Director Mariano R. Alquiza.
RD Alquiza, said that a major fraction of the total budget for 2015 was for the construction and improvement of national roads. Having successfully gained the ISO recognition and certification, RO XI is thus far considered one of the Department’s top performing Regional Offices.
Aiming to step up in the field of Education, the Municipality of Malalag established Albatera Elementary School and became the very first school in the District with one of its buildings donated by a private company.

The DPWH Davao del Sur 2nd District Engineering Office upon seeing the problem, awarded a 1-storey 1-classroom DepEd School Building to the Albatera School Administration.
