Motorists passing along the highly commercialized area of Pasig City can now have smoother ride with the completion of the road rehabilitation project along Capt. Henry Javier Street in Pasig City.
Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) Secretary Mark A. Villar said that DPWH National Capital Region, under the leadership of Director Ador Canlas, completed the replacement of deteriorated concrete pavement of the four (4) lane major city road severly affected over the years by various excavations by utility companies.
“The rehabilitation of this busy road will surely be a relief for motorists coming from Ortigas Business District going to E. Rodriguez Avenue, Pasig Boulevard and C5 Road as they can now have a more comfortable and faster travel time”, said Secretary Villar.
The road project involved the removal of the 756-meter dilapidated pavement and replacement with 300-mm thick Portland concrete cement pavement, with a total cost of P29-million.
DPWH NCR Director Canlas said that the rehabilitation of the road will speed up travel since only temporary asphalt patching were done in the past.
