SAGADA, Mountain
Province -- Four barangay resolutions on
improvement of existing or opening of farm to market
roads here to increase income of rural
households and boost tourism were endorsed by the provincial peace and order
council here in a meeting in the capital town of Bontoc Wednesday.
Proposed for
funding by Sagada Mayor James Pooten for endorsement to the regional
peace and order council and eventually to President Duterte
are four FMRs worth P50 million each at
southern Ankileng, Suyo, Balugan and northern Bangaan.
Southern areas of this
tourist town produce beans, pepper, taro, bananas and rice.
Pongas
Falls and rice terraces along the way are tourist come-ons of
southern barangays.
The Balangagan to
Taccong FMR at Suyo is where Balangagan Cave is located.
During Saturdays, most
market vendors selling vegetables at the town center come from Ankileng and
nearby Balugan.
Once fully
constructed, the Ankileng, Mabisil to Pakil FMR would make it easier
for farmers to transport their crops to the market.
This would also be the
case in Patay- Danum- Mobo- Nadatngan- Bangaan Tabbak FMR at the northern side
of town.
The Tap-ew–Balintaugan
-Bagnen FMR at southern Balugan is where the historic Spanish trail
is located leading towards Balintaugan.
