MANILA, Philippines – State-owned Bases
Conversion and Development Authority (BCDA) is set to complete next month the
19.4-kilometer access road project that will provide a greater level of
accessibility to the Clark Green City site.
In a statement yesterday, BCDA said
construction of the access road project is in full blast and is currently 60
percent complete.
BCDA president and CEO Arnel Paciano
Casanova said once the access road project is completed by July 15, both
current and prospective investors would be able to visit the area more
frequently.
Casanova said roads would play a vital
role in the development of the area, as it will increase its land value,
economic potential and attractiveness to interested investors and proponents.
“The bulldozers are on full throttle and
we are on track in building the country’s first smart, green and
disaster-resilient metropolis, Once the roads are completed, we start breaking
ground for the various development projects located at different sites of Clark
Green City,” he said.
BCDA said the Department of Public Works
and Highways (DPWH) is also implementing the construction of two primary access
roads that lead to the Clark Green City.
