New DPWH 11 chief assumes amid Bangkerohan bridge delay

The Department of Public Works and Highways has a new regional director, who is coming in amidst delays in the construction of the replacement of the Bangkerohan Bridge located right in the middle of the city.

Jenny Juezan, DPWH 11 public information officer, announced the appointment Wednesday of former DPWH Central Visayas regional director Jerome dela Rosa.

Juezan said Dela Rosa still could not comment on the status of the bridge as he still has to warm up his seat for now.
