EXPLANATORY NOTE

This bill seeks to convert the Anao-Cuyapo Road connecting the
Municipality of Cuyapo, Province of Nueva Ecija and the Municipality of Anao,
Province of Tarlac into a National Road.

The existing 7.1 kilometer stretch of road starts from the Anao town
proper to Cuyapo town proper through the Municipality of Nampicuan, Nueva
Ecija. It is presently heavily traversed by motorists from nearby municipalities.
By converting the Anao-Cuyapo into a National Road, it will provide for the
population linkages and better access to services complementing the
agricultural, tourism and social sectors thereby contributing to the social and
economic growth of both provinces.

The Provincial Governments of Nueva Ecija and Tarlac lack the capacity
to upgrade and maintain the aforementioned road. Without appropriate
funding for maintenance, the road will slowly deteriorate and may come into a
state of disrepair. Thus the need to provide funds for the purpose of
continuously maintaining the road at its best conditions for the general welfare
of commuters plying the route is of significant concern.

In view of the foregoing, approval of this bill is earnestly sought.
