All-Weather Urban Corridors are networks of roads that are able to hold out against the effects of extreme weather conditions. Coupled with adequate drainage systems, they allow the passage of vehicles with minimal disruptions to the flow of goods, services, and people. A series of passable roads connecting sea ports to marketplaces will, for instance, ensure that the price of fish sold at public markets does not jump each time it floods. A series of accessible roads connecting airports to commercial areas makes it possible to do inter-island business despite hard rains.
With the support of the Yuchengo Group of Companies (YGC), this study has identified all-weather routes for Iloilo, Clark, and Angeles Cities. The initiative proposed sites where new roads, culverts, and bridges can be erected while considering the threat of floods. Additionally, the study recommended proper management and maintenance of the city roads and drainages that can also help in updating local land use and disaster management plans. The establishment of these All-Weather Urban Corridors will ensure smooth travel and business for the people of Iloilo, Clark, and Angeles Cities, rain or shine.
