Mt. Arayat as a tourism destination and effective road networks are an essential factor in driving not just commerce and investment but also tourism,” Gonzales said stressing that more road projects are now in the pipeline also to interconnect the towns of the district and the district to other districts in Pampanga.

He added that once the road is completed, delivery of essential services and access to the urban center of the town will greatly benefit residents along the stretch of the road project.
