ILOILO CITY: Sen. Grace Poe has urged the management of the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) and the Iloilo International Airport in Cabatuan to fix their air-conditioning systems amid the extreme weather conditions.
It will soon be easier to reach downtown Puntarenas after a series of infrastructure improvements along La Angostura.
“Good news to start the week! This is how the passage through La Angostura in Puntarenas will look like in a year,” President Carlos Alvarado shared on his social media pages. “Thanks to an investment of $6.6 million, the long-awaited expansion from two to four lanes will begin in a few days.”
Along with the road expansion, the upgrades will include new bike paths, sidewalks and a promenade.
“I made this commitment in 2018 because we are very clear that by expanding access to the central canton [of Puntarenas], tourism activity will be boosted,” Alvarado said. “As a result, the regional economy will be strengthened and the quality of life of the people of Puntarenas will be substantially improved.”
