To ease traffic, lessen pollution
BAGUIO CITY – City officials here supported resolution 25, series of
2020, of the municipal council of nearby La Trinidad town that requested
concerned offices of the national government to provide around P5 billion for
construction of the La Trinidad-Baguio bypass road or bridge along Balili River
located within the capital town of Benguet.
City council resolution 564, series of 2022 said construction of the multi-billion bypass road or bridge from La Trinidad to Baguio city would not only greatly lessen traffic congestion affecting both localities but also contribute in lessening air pollution.
Earlier, the Association of Municipal Mayor and Barangay Captains of the Philippines, Inc. (AMMBCP) urged the local government for issuance of a manifestation of support for the implementation of the project construction of the La Trinidad-Baguio bypass road or bridge along Balili River.
The council said Baguio and La Trinidad are 6 km apart and both experience heavy traffic daily due to huge volume of motor vehicles traversing roads going to both localities taking several hours of travel time instead of a matter of a few minutes.
According to the body, the inconvenience caused by the daily heavy traffic has become unbearable to residents of both local governments and aggravates air pollution in both localities, thus the need to provide alternative routes to decongest traffic and reduce air pollution in both localities.
