P30-M Alabel Bypass Road project breaks ground
rEAL-ESTATE company Alsons Development and Investment Corp. (Alsons Dev) and the municipal government of Alabel led the groundbreaking ceremony for the construction of the P30million 877.5-meter bypass road that will link Libertad road in Barangay Maribulan, Alabel to the Sarangani-davao del Sur Coastal road.
A 630-meter property that forms a significant portion of the road was donated by the Alcantara Family, founder and owner of a diversified conglomerate comprised of more than 20 corporations, to the Municipality of Alabel. The donation was made last July 28, 2021, in time for the town’s 50th founding anniversary.
“We are grateful to have donors like the Alcantara Family, who are committed to working with the local government to improve our infrastructure for the betterment of the province and its people,” said Alabel Mayor Vic Paul Salarda.
Set for completion by August 2022, the Alabel Bypass road will bolster land value and socioeconomic development for the municipality, as it will allow a more seamless travel for commuters in Barangays Maribulan, Libertad, Bagacay and Poblacion heading to and coming back from Davao del Sur.
easier access to Davao del Sur, which had a total population of 680,481 in 2020 per the Philippine Statistics Authority, will increase foot traffic to Alabel. This, in turn, will increase the town’s zonal values.
“We are honored to be part of this project. our family has always been supportive of the growth of Alabel. resolute to our founder’s vision of uplifting the people’s quality of life, Alsons Dev will continue to be a catalyst of growth and development, especially in places where our business operates,” Alsons Dev Director Miguel A. Dominguez said.
The property developer is set to expand later this year its real-estate business to Alabel with the launch of a major mixed-use development that integrates prime residential communities, first-class leisure amenities, wide retail and commercial offerings, reputable educational institutions, and government support facilities in one address. This will be Alsons Dev’s first major project outside of Davao City.
