This is after Pangasinan Governor Ramon Guico III signed on Thursday the joint venture agreement and tollway concession agreements with San Miguel Holdings Corporation (SMHC) President and Chief Executive Officer Ramon Ang for the implementation of the expressway project that will connect the western and eastern parts of the province.
Governor Guico said, “The project is a game-changer for Pangasinan as it is envisioned to reinvent transportation and enrich the tourism landscape, prioritizing accessibility of citizens to major towns and cities, magnifying business and livelihood opportunities, multiplying economic activities, building more infrastructures, facilitating province-wide travel, and protecting the province’s environmental resources.”
“This started as a dream years ago. So it was a challenge but after a year and four months, today, we realized that dream. We actualized the partnership that our province has nurtured and treasured with San Miguel Corporation,” Guico said.
Once the project is completed, the governor said it will provide shorter travel time for tourists, residents, and transporters from Binalonan to Lingayen for Phase I and Lingayen to Alaminos City for Phase II.
