Rep. Del Mar says: Flyover fund not for road widening
Although Del Mar supported the recommendation to have the highway widened before the flyover would be constructed, he said the problem is that the government does not have funds for the road widening that he estimated to cost more than P1 billion.
There were suggestions that the budget for the flyover should be used to make the existing four-lane Banilad highway into a six-lane road to solve the traffic congestion in the area.
But
He explained that his plan to solve the traffic congestion in Banilad-Talamban highway has four components and the construction of the flyover project is the first of them.
The next component is the widening of the road fronting the Gaisano Country Mall up to the corner of

The last component of the plan to solve the traffic congestion along Banilad-Talamban highway is the opening of a new road from the city jail in barangay Apas to Banilad. But he said it would be a difficult project due to the lack of funds.
But he suggested that authorities should strictly enforce the laws on the proper way to drive to possibly minimize the traffic congestion along the Banilad-Talamban highway.
