Smoother traffic flow and a more vibrant economic activity in Las Piñas will follow once the city’s river drive project has been completed, Senator Cynthia Villar has assured.
The Las Piñas River Drive from CAA road to C5 road project, which is an initiative of Villar, is a three-phase, 6.2-kilometer road project. The project is designed to ease traffic congestion and reduce flooding incidents in the city during the rainy season.
“We are very proud of this project which will cut the travel time to and from the city of Las Pinas by 300 percent. This new road and other road infrastructure developments will make Las Piñas more attractive to investors,” the seasoned legislator said.
