July 8, 2025

The Department of Transportation (DoTr) said it will set aside P264.62 million for the Virac Airport redevelopment project.

In a bid notice, the DoTr set a July 28 deadline for proposals to upgrade the airport serving Catanduanes.

The winning contractor will be given 720 days, inclusive of a 60-day allowance for days deemed unworkable, to complete the project.

The Virac Airport project involves site development for a building, the construction of a control tower, the extension of the runway, and the construction of turning pad.

For this year, the government has budgeted P7.7 billion for upgrades at 15 airports to help boost tourism and refurbish outdated air facilities.

The 15 airports include Virac, Sorsogon’s Bacon Airport, and Ilocos Sur’s Candon Airport.

Other projects include Tacloban City Airport, which is set to receive P2.3 billion of the total budget; and Busuanga, Palawan, and Laoag International Airports. —  Ashley Erika O. Jose
