EIGHTEENTH CONGRESS ls
OF THE REPUBLIC OF THE PHILIPPINES } RECEIVED 7 A
First Regular Session )

Introduced by Representative Victor A. Yap

EXPLANATORY NOTE

This bill seeks to convert the 25-kilometer Sta. Ignacia~Guimba Provincial Road via
Gerona-Pura Road, stretching from Barangay Nambalan, Municipality of Sta. Ignacia to
Barangay Buenavista, Municipality of Pura, all in the Province of Tarlac, into a national road. It
forms part of the provincial circumferential road network that includes 15 road arteries.

The Province of Tarlac is a predominantly agricultural area. Its overall spatial framework
is directed towards its development as the “Agro-Industrial Hub of Central Luzon” as envisioned
in the Regional Physical Development Framework. Landlocked by the four provinces of
Pangasinan, Nueva Ecija, Pampanga and Zambales, Tarlac is in a strategic position to provide
vital access to and from these four provinces. It is thus imperative that the road arteries in the
province be improved and properly maintained being the critical links to the movement of goods
and services in the entire Northern Luzon. The Sta. Ignacia~Guimba Road via Gerona-Pura is
fone such road artery. It forms part of the circumferential road network linking the various
provinces in the Northern Luzon.

While the Province of Tarlac recognizes the important role of roads in facilitating
economic activities, it does not have the financial capability to undertake the task of road
maintenance and improvement, as it is dependent on locally generated funds. Thus, this bill
proposes the conversion of the Sta. Ignacia~Guimba Road via Gerona-Pura into a national road,
and providing funds for this purpose.

For the foregoing reasons, the immediate passage of this measure is sought
