Cordillera roads damaged by Luis, monsoon rains

Heavy rains caused by typhoon Luis and monsoon activity led to significant damage across several roads in the Cordillera region of the Philippines. The Department of Public Works and Highways reported that multiple roads were either closed or reduced to single-lane conditions due to mudflows, road slips, and rockfalls. The impact was particularly notable in Benguet Province, where the Baguio-Bontoc Road was severely affected, with only one lane remaining operational. The situation highlights ongoing challenges related to infrastructure resilience in mountainous areas prone to extreme weather.
