The Malay town council which has jurisdiction over this resort island has asked the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) to fast track its long delayed P80-million circumferential road project here.
Malay councilor Jonathan Cabrera said that the delay in the completion of the circumferential road hampers initiatives for the improvement of this resort island.
Among these are the deliberations on the proposed traffic code and terminal parking ordinance to ease traffic situation.
The DPWH is still waiting for the release of the fund from the Department of Budget and Management (DBM) for the project to be completed.
"Part of our deliberation is to ask the DPWH why the Boracay Circumferential Road has been suspended," said Cabrera.
For several years this resort island has been besieged with traffic woes due to the increasing numbers of both tourists and local residents.
