BAGUIO CITY – Two major roads will be closed here to give way for the rehabilitation projects to be undertaken by the Dept. of Public Works and Highways.
The city council last Monday approved the total closure of Kisad Road from March 5 to May 5 and of Governor Pack Road from April 9 to June 9 as requested by Baguio City District Engineering Office Engineer Ireneo Gallato.
The Kisad Road project will be for the “rehabilitation/reconstruction/upgrading of damaged paved national road (intermittent sections) at Kisad Road, K0249+(-759)-K0249+299.”
The Governor Pack project will involve a similar work on the following section: K-0249+001-K0249+461.
The council committee on public utilities under Councilor NicasioAliping Jr. recommended the approval of Galato’s request endorsed by Mayor Mauricio Domogan.
Gallato in the letter to the mayor said the contractors of said projects assured to work round-the-clock to fast-track the projects and complete the same before the rainy season and school opening in June.
He said there is a need to totally close said roads to allow the contractors to mobilize manpower and equipment easily and to shorten the duration of the project.
“The contract times are 110 and 120 calendar days respectively. There is a need to have a crash program based on PERT-CPM to shorten duration so that stakeholders will benefit the soonest,” Gallato said.
He said alternate routes have been identified and the temporary relocation of the buses stationed at the Governor Road will be tackled by the Traffic and Transportation Management Committee (TTMC).
