MANILA, Philippines — The chief of the first district engineering office in Camarines Sur has been relieved from his post in connection with a recent road accident in the town of Del Gallego.
Public Works and Highways Secretary Vince Dizon announced the relief of the official during an inspection of local flood control projects in Naga City.
Dizon was accompanied by Mayor Leni Robredo during the inspection.
He said the Department of Public Works and Highways would enforce strict accountability on field officials and private contractors who compromise public safety.
The accident at a construction site in Barangay Magais was blamed on the absence of warning signages, hazard devices and safety barriers.
Dizon warned that private contractors involved in the project would face administrative sanctions and potential criminal charges as it is their responsibility to put up correct safety signages.
