Scenic highland road in Santol Town, La Union ongoing
The Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) is building a 10-kilometer upland road that is now attracting sightseers who wish to have a glimpse of picturesque mountain landscapes from the highland barangays of Santol, La Union Province.
DPWH Secretary Mark A. Villar, based on a report from DPWH Region 1 Director Ronnel M. Tan, said that the ongoing road project which has so far received an allocation of P490 million since 2018 is primarily aimed to improve existing narrow road into a 2-lane concrete road in Barangays Poblacion, Puguil, and Tubaday.
