Five House of Representatives members have proposed the Accelerated Infrastructure Development Act of 2023 to mandate round-the-clock operations for priority government infrastructure projects, especially roads and bridges.
The bill, also known as House Bill No. 9666, aims to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of project execution to meet public demand for better infrastructure.
Key proponents of the bill include Deputy Majority Leader Erwin Tulfo and Representatives Edvic Yap, Jocelyn Tulfo, Eric Yap, and Ralph Tulfo.
The proposed legislation seeks to streamline the implementation of infrastructure projects by enabling 24/7 work schedules.
According to the bill, this initiative is designed to revolutionize project completion speed and address the issue of extended timelines in traditional project management.
The 24/7 operational mandate would apply to all government infrastructure projects funded by the national government, LGUs, and GOCCs, focusing on the construction, repair, and maintenance of roads and bridges.
