The Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) has completed the construction of a multi-purpose building that now serves as a new Bagsakan Center for local products in the Municipality of Dipaculao, Aurora Province.
DPWH Regional Office 3 Director Roseller Tolentino, in his report to DPWH Secretary Manuel Bonoan, said that the 800-square-meter project constructed in Barangay Lipit now caters to the needs of the local agricultural community by providing farmers and vendors a trading hub for fruits, vegetables, and other agricultural produce.
“The Bagsakan Center is equipped with designated loading and unloading areas along with ample storage space as well as 32 indoor and outdoor solar lights for sufficient and sustainable lighting.”
