The Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) will likely spend about P30 million for the repair of a portion of the seawall along Roxas Boulevard damaged by a storm surge at the height of typhoon “Pedring” last Tuesday.
DPWH-National Capital Region director Reynaldo Tagudando said that based on their initial assessment, about 750 meters of the seawall was destroyed by the waves.
He said they would start the repair of the seawall as soon as the weather improves.
“As of now we are assessing the appropriate restoration. We will put sandbags as a temporary measure,” Tagudando said.
He said both lanes of Roxas Boulevard were already passable to all types of vehicles.
A total of 250 DPWH personnel yesterday joined the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority and employees of the Manila City government in the clean up drive following Pedring’s onslaught.
Tiles at the Baywalk area were also damaged as waves toppled trees.
