Para tiyak na ligtas at de-kalidad, magsagawa ng madalas na inspeksyon, maintenance sa mga DPWH projects

IPINANUKALA ni Parañaque 2nd District Rep. Brian Yamsuan ang mandatoryong periodic inspection at maintenance ng mga infrastructure projects na ipinatutupad ng national government upang masigurong structurally safe at mataas ang kalidad ng mga ito.

Layon ng inihain nitong House Bill (HB) 9780 na atasan ang Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) na magsagawa ng regular inspections kada 5-10 taon matapos makumpleto ang isang infrastructure project. 

“Kailangang matiyak na nanatiling ligtas at de-kalidad ang bawat proyekto para naman hindi masayang ang pondo ng gobyerno. The true value of an infrastructure project is not in the construction itself, but in its longevity, safety and usability,” ani Yamsuan. “While these digital portals help monitor the implementation of national government infrastructure projects, periodic physical inspections remain necessary to check on the ground whether these projects still pass engineering safety standards after years of being subjected to severe weather conditions, overloading and other factors that affect their structural integrity.”
