The DPWH said on Monday that it completed a seawall project in Eastern Samar to protect residents hit by Typhoon Yolanda (international name: Haiyan), with the first phase of the Pagnamitan Bridge project also due to be implemented this year. READ:

The bridge is expected “to provide better accessibility along the Guiuan-Sulangan Peninsula Road and widen the waterways to reduce flooding in the area,” the department said in a statement.

“The construction of a seawall is deemed a priority to ensure that residents in the area no longer experience the destruction caused by Typhoon Yolanda in 2013,” it said. Separately, the DPWH said it completed the final phase of construction on the Ibajay Bypass Road Widening Project, which is aimed at improving connectivity between Kalibo and neighboring towns in Aklan.
