Marcos signs law amending RoW Act
Business World Philippines
|September 18, 2025
PHILIPPINE President Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr. signed into law a measure that amended the Right-of-Way (RoW) Act, which would allow the government to acquire more land for big-ticket infrastructure projects.
-
Palace Press Officer Clarissa A. Castro confirmed the development on Wednesday through a Viber message to BusinessWorld.
“The President signed and approved the bill,” she said, without elaborating.
A copy of the signed law has yet to be released.
Right-of-way issues have hampered the rollout of government infrastructure projects, such as the Metro Manila Subway Project.
The Accelerated and Reformed Right-of-Way Act is one of the Marcos administration's priority legislations, as it is expected to facilitate easier land acquisition for National Government infrastructure projects.
