00:00The traffic is still busy on the damaged part of the Andaya Highway in Camarines Sur,
00:06following the rains.
00:08The question is, will it be completed before the new year?
00:12Watch Ian Cruz!
00:18Three hours!
00:20It's so annoying!
00:22Let's go home!
00:23Many Bicol travelers are already dismayed
00:25on the damaged part of the Andaya Highway in Lupi, Camarines Sur.
00:29Some came from Calamba, Laguna last night.
00:31It's already 3 p.m.
00:34Three hours!
00:35It's so annoying!
00:36Let's go home!
00:37Let's go home!
00:39In the direction of Pamaynila,
00:41due to the traffic,
00:42the people of Sipocot
00:44and the vendors in the morning
00:46are still on their way to the afternoon.
00:48Excuse me ma'am,
00:49our chicken is broken.
00:51There's no ice.
00:53The ice melted.
00:55Even the Bicol Peruvians before Christmas
00:58still reached their destination,
01:00back to Manila.
01:02There's no choice.
01:03That's how it is.
01:05So, we'll just follow the flow.
01:08On Monday,
01:09the highway in Barangay Cabutagan,
01:12damaged by the typhoon Kristi in October,
01:15was repaired.
01:16It was replaced by a steel barricade,
01:18but it was given away before Christmas.
01:20It was replaced by a new one.
01:22The DPWH couldn't finish the work
01:25because the passengers had to walk.
01:28It takes 30 minutes to walk
01:30in each direction,
01:32followed by a 30-minute repair.
01:35But sometimes,
01:36someone gets angry,
01:37so it takes longer.
01:39The thing is,
01:40the motorists can't avoid it.
01:43The motorists really get angry there, sir.
01:46That's our problem there.
01:48In the town of Limanan,
01:49three parts of Maharlika Highway
01:51were damaged in Barangay Bical
01:53because of the heavy rain
01:55in the past few days.
01:57It's been less than a year since this happened.
01:59The foundation they built here in our barangay
02:02is weak.
02:04The others don't have enough coals,
02:07and the cement is weak.
02:10That's why they don't want to do it.
02:16I don't think so, sir,
02:17because it's a matter of quality.
02:19We have water, sir.
02:21It's a matter of quality.
02:22We do an HDT,
02:24a field density test,
02:26before we pour it.
02:29Some blame the unfinished drainage,
02:32so the water goes to the road
02:34and the soil becomes soft.
02:36According to DPWH-BICOL,
02:38they also fix the unfinished drainage,
02:41like the posts on the side.
02:44Aside from the damaged road,
02:45Barangay Bical also remembers
02:47the landslide.
02:49This area in Barangay Bical
02:52is considered a landslide prone
02:55in the town of Libmanan, Camarinesur.
02:57We can see that there is a long crack
03:00in the foot of the mountain,
03:02and around it,
03:03there are still many cracks that can be seen.
03:06That's why the 16 houses here
03:08are already in danger.
03:09That's why the people of the barangay
03:11say to them,
03:12always be careful,
03:13especially when it rains heavily.
03:16Other houses,
03:18like the house of Susana Buella,
03:21are abandoned.
03:22They are scattered on the ground
03:24because of the rain on the ground.
03:27If possible,
03:29the soil will come here
03:31and bring water,
03:33because according to the inspectors,
03:35the water flows under it.
03:38In Napolitan Lupi,
03:39which is close to the boundary of Camarines Norte,
03:42landslides are happening
03:45because of the rain.
03:46Because it's planted next to each other.
03:48It's next to each other.
03:50But for us,
03:51what really happened to us,
03:53everything fell.
03:54Because of the rain?
03:55Yes, because of the rain.
03:56Because the soil became soft.
