HOUSE BILL No. 8950
Introduced by Representative Francisco Jose F. Matugas 11
EXPLANATORY NOTE
This bill which was filed in the  15th,  16th,  17th   and  18th  Congress and re-
filed   in   the   present   Congress,   seeks   to   convert   the   road   stretching   from
BARANGAY  ROXAS,   MUNICIPALITY  OF   SAN  ISIDRO   TO   BARANGAYS
NUEVO CAMPO AND TALISAY, MUNICIPALITY OF SAN BENITO, in the First
Congressional District of the Province of Surigao del Norte, presently classified as
a provincial road, into a National Road.
The RORAS -SAN ISIDRO -NUEVO CAMPO -TALISAY -SAN BENITO
ROAD   covers   a   distance   of  4,079.55   meters   from   Barangay   Roxas   in   the
Municipality of San Isidro traversing the Barangays of Nuevo Campo and ending
in Barangay Talisay in the Municipality of Sam Benito, Surigao del Norte. It covers
an area of 321,260 square meters.
Siargao Island is still recovering from the  devastating effects of Typhoon
Odette  and the  Covid-19 pandemic. As the  island opens  its  doors  once  again to
local and foreign tourists, we must ensure that the necessary infrastructures, such
as this road, are in place to support the needs of both tourists and residents.
In view of the  foregoing,  the  immediate  approval of this bill is earnestly
sought.
