DPWH stops road reblocking over kickback allegations

Manila Bulletin

|

October 11, 2025

The Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) on Friday, Oct. 10, halted all road reblocking works following allegations that some projects were carried out to generate kickbacks rather than repair actual road damage.

- By TRIXEE ROSEL

DPWH Secretary Vince Dizon, in a press conference, said the repeated dismantling and reconstruction of roads in seemingly good condition has long frustrated citizens.

He added that these concerns prompted the department to issue new rules regulating reblocking projects to ensure transparency and accountability.
