Subway project 55% cleared for ROW - DOTr
The Philippine Star
|March 08, 2024
The Department of Transportation (DOTr) is facing challenges in acquiring the right of way (ROW) for the subway, delaying the award for the remaining contract packages (CP) of the project.
In a visit to the subway site, Transportation Secretary Jaime Bautista said the DOTr has cleared more than half of the ROW for the Metro Manila Subway Project (MMSP).
However, Bautista said the DOTr is facing challenges in acquiring the remaining ROW, forcing the agency to delay the award of CPs 105, 108 and 109 of the MMSP.
Instead of awarding the deals in the first quarter, the DOTr was left with no choice but to move the issuance in the third quarter. Bautista said the agency has to procure the ROW for these CPs first before their contractors are named.
