By J.Lo
All Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) Regional and District Engineering Offices will once again deploy teams that will aid motorists in the forthcoming long weekend for the nationwide observance of All Saints' Day.
According to DPWH Secretary Manuel M. Bonoan, the Department's motorist assistance program dubbed "Lakbay Alalay" has been reactivated and will be operational along strategic locations nationwide starting at 7:00 am on Thursday, October 28, 2022 until 12:00 noon of Wednesday, November 2, 2022.
DPWH "Lakbay Alalay" Teams are composed of uniformed field and crew personnel with maintenance equipment on standby at navy blue-colored tents along identified stations.
"Our teams will be working on a round-the-clock shift to provide emergency assistance to travelers and ensure major thoroughfares are well-maintained, and free from obstruction and potholes," said Secretary Bonoan.
Secretary Bonoan also ordered implementing offices with ongoing projects to ensure that proper safety signages and traffic advisories are posted by contractors, in order to prevent traffic slowdown along major roads and routes leading to cemeteries.
Furthermore, DPWH is in close coordination with other government entities such as Land Transportation Office (LTO), Philippine National Police (PNP), and Local Government Units (LGUs) for any required assistance.
