I just came from Bayombong. Traffic in Dalton Pass was so bad, primarily due to slow moving/crawling 22 wheeler trucks. I wonder whether the DPWH implements its rules on overloading.

I heard though of an alternate route from San Jose, Nueva Ecija to Aritao, Nueva Vizcaya that is now being constructed. The road, which bypasses Sta Fe, Nueva Vizcaya, is around 10 km and supposedly has a 1 km tunnel bridge/viaduct. It's supposedly 90% complete. Anyone has heard about this project?
