SANTIAGO CITY, Isabela: With the opening of the more than P1.6-billion Ilagan-Divilacan Road, the coastal towns of Isabela will no longer be considered isolated from the rest of Luzon, according to Gov. Rodolfo Albano 3rd.

Albano said the road project, which is nearing its completion, will be fully opened to all types of motorists by early 2020 to connect Cagayan Valley (Region 2) and the rest of Northern Luzon to the Isabela’s coastal towns of Maconacon, Divilacan, Palanan and Dinapigue.
