The Benguet–Nueva Vizcaya Road, (also known as the Baguio–Aritao Road or Baguio–Nueva Vizcaya Road), is the road system that connects the provinces of Benguet and Nueva Vizcaya in the Philippines.[2]
The road starts at the junction with Pan-Philippine Highway and Aritao–Quirino Road in Aritao, Nueva Vizcaya. It then enters the towns of Kayapa, also in Nueva Vizcaya, and Bokod, Itogon, and La Trinidad in Benguet. It passes through Ambuklao Dam, and generally follows the Santa Cruz River (a tributary of the Magat River) in Nueva Vizcaya and the Agno River in Benguet. It then enters the city of Baguio as Pacdal Road as it traverses barangay Pacdal. It ends at Pacdal Circle, a component of Leonard Wood Road near Wright Park.[1]
History
The road was completed in September 2006. It is an upgrade from the old road, making it an all-weather path. The road cost ₱2.1 billion, and was a joint project by the Philippine government and the Japan Bank for International Cooperation.[3]
