Nautical Highway: Western Philippines

Published by lakbay on September 7th, 2010 - in Travel Philippines
I posted eons ago about the Central Nautical Highway. Here’s the Western Nautical Highway route.

Intro

One of the challenges of Philippines being an archipelago is the transportation of goods from one part of the country to another. A significant amount of goods are being delivered to the National Capital Region, as there’s a high demand and profitability. The problem is given resolution (partially, I should say) by the establishment of Nautical Highways – highways bridged over waters by the Ro-Ro (roll-on roll-off) barges. If I may add, a very good resolution would be bridges between islands especially those close to each other. If that’s not so fancy and budget-friendly enough, there should be underwater tunnels that connect major island-cities to facilitate transportation fluidity; goal is traveling between islands as seamless as traveling from Cebu City to Moalboal.
