HOUSE BILL NO.

INTRODUCED BY REP. JB BERNOS

AN ACT
CONVERTING THE ROAD STRETCHING FROM BARANGAY POBLACION,
MUNICIPALITY OF TAYUM, TO BARANGAY NORTH POBLACION,
MUNICIPALITY OF BUCAY, ALL OF THE PROVINCE OF ABRA INTO A
NATIONAL ROAD AND APPROPRIATING FUNDS THEREFOR

EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Bill seeks to convert the Tayum-Bucay alternate road that stretches from Brgy.
Poblacion, Tayum to Brgy. North Poblacion, Bucay, all in the Province of Abra, into a national

road.

National roads are important in our country, as they provide primary access to
communities and move people, goods, and services across the country. The Province of Abra
currently has four (4) national roads, yet there is still a need to enhance roads in various locations
in the province. Due to the mountainous terrain of. ‘Abra, trade and commerce, while active, are
slow due to accessibility issues. Through creation of national roads, we aim to jumpstart local
economies and industries to compete with neighboring areas, especially in our quest to make
Abra an eco-tourism destination for local and foreign tourists. Through this measure, we aim to
improve accessibility of the municipalities of Tayum and Bucay — which are considered to be

conurbations of the provincial capital and economic center Bangued.


Limited resources of the provincial government necessitate the inclusion of the
maintenance, rehabilitation, and improvement of the Tayum-Bucay Alternate Road under the
infrastructure program of the national government. In view of the foregoing, the immediate

passage of this Bill is earnestly sought.
