Slope Protection Structure Ensures Road Safety in Baybay, Leyte
The Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) recently completed the construction of a road slope protection structure to safeguard motorists and pedestrians from destructive effects of flooding and landslides in Barangay Imelda, Baybay, Leyte Province.
The project involved the construction of a 92-meter slope protection with 165 lineal meters of lined canal, reconstruction of 180-lineal meter road, and other engineering measures designed to convert and manage excessive water during heavy rainfall that causes soil erosion and increases risk of landslides.
