KENNON ROAD, one of the routes going to mountain city destination Baguio, is closed due to a rock slide in one area, the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) announced on Thursday. While clearing operations are ongoing, DPWH said all motorists “must pass through Aspiras-Ben Palispis (Marcos) Highway or Baguio-Bauang (Naguillian Road). Alternate route for light vehicles: Asin-Nangalisan-San Pascual-Tubao Road.” Meanwhile, two other road sections within the Cordillera Administrative Region have also been temporarily closed. One is the Banaue-Mayoyao-A. Lista-Isabela boundary road due to a series of soil erosions. The alternate route is via the Ubao-Tang Road. The other impassable road is the Busa section in Sabangan, Mt. Province of the Baguio-Bontoc highway due to a road cut. The alternate route is Nacagang-Abatan, Bauko, Maba-ay Provincial Road.
