Government is proposing more than P8 billion for road development over the next two years, including the eagerly-anticipated Nata-Maun route

Government intends to spend P580 million over the next two financial years on rebuilding the 300-kilometre road, the dilapidated but critical link that has been the focus of transport infrastructure grievances over the years.
