The Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) has recently completed a road upgrading project along a section of Daang Maharlika in San Leonardo, Nueva Ecija to provide motorists with safer and more convenient travel experience.
DPWH Secretary Manuel Bonoan, citing a report from DPWH Regional Office 3 Director Roseller Tolentino, said that included in the P94.53-million road rehabilitation along the Tabuating Section of Daang Maharlika in San Leonardo town, is the paving of 1.7-meter-wide road shoulders and the construction of a drainage system with stone masonry and parapet walls.

Completed by the DPWH Nueva Ecija Second District Engineering Office (DEO), the off-carriageway improvement with a total length of 1.21 kilometers and built using high density polyethylene pipes, is seen to drain water away from the carriageway to maintain the structural integrity of the road.
“The completed road upgrades now provide the traveling public with a safe and efficient highway system, which is seen to accelerate the delivery of goods and services in the province of Nueva Ecija,” Bonoan said.
