Project Profile and Japan’s ODA Loan Bagiuo Manila Project site Cebu City Philippines Davao Project site location map One of the arterial roads improved via the project 1.1 Background From its independence through the 1980s, the Philippines invested heavily in the expansion of road network in order to respond to a rapid increase in the number of vehicles and, inevitably, demand for road transportation. Extension of the national network of arterial roads was achieved during this period. Function and quality, however, were given a secondary consideration, which ultimately impeded the efficiency and economic effects of the country’s road infrastructure. Thus, with a view to ensure an efficient and reliable road network, qualitative improvements (i.e. increase in the paved road ratio, reconstruction from temporary bridges to permanent structures, etc.), were identified as a priority issue for the road sector in the 1990s. 1.2 Objectives This project’s objective was to increase the efficiency of road transportation on the islands of Leyte, Samar and Bohol by developing their arterial road networks, thereby contributing to regional economic stimulation and improvements in the living standards of local residents. 1.3 Borrower/Executing Agency Government of the Philippine Republic/Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) 1 1.4 Outline of Loan Agreement Phase 1 Phase 2 Total Loan Amount/ 11,754 million yen/ 4,765 million yen/ 16,519 million yen/ Disbursed Amount 11,752 million yen 3,846 million yen 15,598 million yen Exchange of Notes/ Nov.
