hi maning,
does that include the link between Surigao del Norte and Del Sur? Should be
trunk road but currently tagged primary.
about 14 kilometers of it is rough where only 4x4, trucks and buses can
pass (about an hour travel through the very rough road). Ironically, the
big mining companies of Surigao are there, the ones attacked by the NPA
last year (when I passed by, i still saw burnt dump trucks and smoke from
barges). makes you wonder if mining realy improves the community (gives you
a job but look at the environment, Surigao's hills are going to be
flattened and the rivers turned to red color of clay, plus they can't even
fix the road.
I didn't change the road classification because of this rough road status,
it's shorter if you want to get to Surigao del Sur, better pass by Butuan
from Surigao City
