Bukidnon in Mindanao’s Priority Infra 2007-2010 – NEDA says

May 1, 2008

The regional office of the National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA-10) has just announced the inclusion of the Province of Bukidnon as among those provinces that will receive a top-priority infrastructure project in the next three years.

The agency cites priority road, irrigation, power, environment protection and other infrastructure projects covering Bukidnon in the  Medium Term Public Investment Program for Mindanao, 2007-2010.

Included are the ongoing P450 million Talakag Irrigation Project; P1.9 billion Misamis Oriental-Bukidnon-Agusan del Norte-Butuan City Road;  P4.608 billion  Mindanao East-West Lateral Road; and Misamis Oriental-Bukidnon By-Pass Road (from the DPWH lump sum allocation).

Also, the P210 million Rehabilitation of Pulangui IV Hydroelectric Power (HEP) Plant Reservoir  in Maramag, Bukidnon; P250 million Mindanao North Coast Integrated Area Development Project; and the Proposed P162 million Integrated Management and Protection of Watershed and Coastal Areas and P60 million Rural Roads for Food under the Food for Work Program.

Meanwhile, as an offshoot of RDC-10 Resolution  No. 14 (s. 2006) recommending the widening into four lanes of the Sayre Highway-Puerto-Damulog stretch.

The Department of Public Works and Highways Regional Office 10 also slated the continuing rehabilitation, upgrading and widening of the Sayre Highway (from Puerto, Cagayan de Oro to Dologon in Maramag, Bukidnon) in 2008-2010.

Aside from the preventive and regular maintenance fund allotments, some P136 million allocation for the Maramag-Maridugao Road in 2008 is proposed for realignment to the Sayre Highway particularly along Boundary Alae of Manolo Fortich to Kisolon of Sumilao, Bukidnon.

Another P50 million is also allotted for the Mangima section this year.

As part of the Mindanao Super Region’s development strategy, inter-regional projects are implemented traversing Bukidnon like the P3.272 billion Talaingod, Davao del Norte – Valencia, Bukidnon Road and the P8.010 billion Abaga-Kirahon-Maramag-Bunawan 230 KV Transmission Project.  Mindanao-wide Small Irrigation Projects, Farm to Market Roads and Barangay Electrification Program are also expected to cover the province as well.
