TRB sets approval for project

An official of Toll Regulatory Board (TRB) said on Wednesday that the approval for the Supplemental Toll Operations Agreement (STOA) of Metro Pacific Investment Corp. for a connector road project is expected to be out in the first quarter this year.

“They have submitted [the STOA]. What we approved during the last board meeting—kasi step-by-step ’yung approval ng TRB [the approval is step-by-step]—alignment is the first item, then sinabay na namin ’yung basic [we simultaneously approved the basic] design of the road. Those are really important items,” said Edmundo Reyes Jr., TRB executive director.
