Philippines suspends road reblocking nationwide over corruption, shifting farm-to-market projects to Agriculture Dept.
On October 10, 2025, the Philippine DPWH suspended all road reblocking nationwide due to concerns over corruption and misuse of funds, citing unnecessary work on roads in Bocaue, Bulacan, and Tuguegarao City, Cagayan.
Secretary Vince Dizon said reblocking was being used for financial gain, not public need, and issued show cause orders against involved engineers.
The suspension excludes necessary maintenance, and the agency plans new policies, a transparency portal, and reforms to improve accountability.
Farm-to-market road projects will now be led by the Department of Agriculture to address past corruption concerns.
