PGMA inaugurates Quezon road in Pampanga

President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo on Tuesday led the inauguration of the newly-rehabilitated Tulaoc- Sto.Domingo Road better known as Quezon road which was damaged by heavy rains brought by typhoons Frank and Julian.

Together with Pampanga 4th District Representative Ana York Bondoc, Pampanga 3rd District Representative Aurelio Gonzales, Jr. and other officials, the Chief Executive made an inaugural drive thru of the Tulaoc-Sto. Domingo Road (San Simon section) all the way to the Sto. Domingo (Mexico section).

The Quezon Road which transverses the towns of San Simon and Mexico also serves as an alternate route to the Manila North Road and the Gapan-Olongapo Roads, bypassing the City of San Fernando and Sto. Tomas, Pampanga for traffic to and from the northern provinces of Luzon..

With its rehabilitation, DPWH Regional Director Alfredo Tolentino said it will result to shorter travel time and assure vehicle cost savings, especially for food haulers coming from the provinces of Nueva Ecija and Tarlac bound for Manila and vice versa.
