○ Extent to which they promote and regional
and local and physical framework plans
○ Opportunities for private sector participation.
Infrastructure
Development
 Strategic Role of Infrastructure
Prioritize and implement infrastructure
projects that support the policy of national
dispersal through regional concentration.
Promote inter-modal transportation systems,
taking into account compatibility, economic
feasibility, comparative advantage and
linkages of desired transportation modes to
facilitate smooth transfer of people and
goods between designated transfer points.
Infrastructure
Development
 Prioritize and implement infrastructure
projects that allow increased access to
basic social and other development
services while catering to the productive
sectors and market based industry putting
the entire population into the mainstream of
sustainable development;
 Ensure compatibility of infrastructure with
local land use and development plans,
giving priority to projects with the most
strategic impacts.
 Protects infrastructure right-of-way.

DEFINITIONS:

 the basic physical and organizational

structures needed for the operation of a
society or enterprise
 or the services and facilities necessary
for an economy to function

INFRASTRUCTURE
STUDY
 Infrastructure
study seeks to respond to
the major areas of concern in
comprehensive land use planning
namely:
efficient internal and external linkages;
improved and equitable access to basic
social services, facilities, and economic
opportunities;
and to stimulate the desired physical growth
and development.
INFRASTRUCTURE
STUDY
 The study entails the assessment of the
current infrastructure facilities/utilities to
determine its capacity to support the
existing and future needs/demands of
the locality. Decisions on infrastructure
development have to consider other
factors such as land use policies, costs,
and the protection of ecological
resources.
The broad framework for analyzing the
infrastructure sector is provided by the
following guideposts:
 What are the existing infrastructure utilities and facilities in
the locality?
 What are their physical conditions? How well are these
utilities and facilities managed and maintained?
 Are these adequate, efficient and reliable?
 How can these existing utilities and facilities affect the
efficiency and effectiveness of other sectors’
performance?
 Do these current utilities and facilities support the
development of the locality?
 How can this sector meet the current and projected
demands and requirements of the population? How can it
improve the delivery of services and strengthen the local
economy?

TYPES OF ROAD
 Various types of road are in use around the
world. Roads range in size from private
driveways, to the stereotypical two-lane
highway, to high capacity dual carriageway
routes, such as freeways, motorways and
high-quality dual carriageways. The names
associated with a particular type of road vary
around the world, and many names are
partially equivalent but not exactly equivalent
to each other. As a result, the name given to a
road in one country could apply to a different
type of road in another country

Low capacity
 Low capacity roads are generally low
speed local roads serving a particular
village, town, neighborhood, or city.
They provide access to and from roads
designed with higher capacities and for
higher speeds. They often also serve
the broadest variety of road users such
as pedestrians, automobiles,
motorcycles, trucks, animals, wagons,
and carriages.

High speed roads
 Most countries have major roads of
medium capacity that connect cities,
places, other routes, or other significant
points of interest. They may have multiple
lanes of traffic, a median or central
reservation between lanes of opposing
traffic, and partial access control (ramps
and grade separation). Often they are
restricted to motorized vehicles that can
maintain high speeds. However, they can
also be as simple as a two-lane
shoulderless road.

FRESNIDO, GONZAGA, RAMOS, TECSON
HIGH capacity roads include:

 2+1 road
 2+2 road
 High-quality dual carriageway
 Expressway
 Farm to Market Road
 Highway
 Parkway
 Super two

PHYSICAL PLANNING AND INFRASTRUCTURE PLANNING :

High speed restricted
access roads
 Most high capacity roads are built to a
higher standard than general purpose
roads. In order to provide for higher traffic
volumes, access is restricted to certain
categories of motorized vehicles and
limited to a certain number of access points
where grade separations and ramps
enable through traffic to proceed without
interruption. These high capacity routes are
almost always divided.

Multi Modal
 Multi-modal roads are a newer concept
in which a dedicated HOV or carpool
lane is also set with light rail tracks. This
single lane serves dual purpose of
providing priority to Buses, Lightrail, as
well as carpools.

THINGS TO CONSIDER
Determine the felt needs, aspirations
and issues of the community relative
to water utilities
through consultations such as general
assembly, focused group discussion,
barangay
consultation or other consultative
meetings with identified stakeholders.
Describe the levels of existing water supply
services, facilities, and resources in the
city/municipality in terms of the following:
1. Total number of households and/or the area
coverage, type, capacity, location, served
by:
a. Level I – point sources (such as rain
collector, wells and springs); generally for
rural areas where houses are thinly scattered
to justify a distribution system;
b. Level II – communal faucet systems,
generally for rural areas where houses are
densely clustered enough to justify a piped
distribution system providing a number
of households with faucets.
2. Local waterworks system (Level III) by type
and number of consumers, average
consumption and areas served.
3. Other water sources in terms of type,
location, and volume.
4. Existing watershed areas, location, and
condition.
5. Existing surface water resources in the
locality. (e.g. rivers, lakes, water impounding
structures and other sources of water). Indicate
location and classification/utilization of
water bodies (refer to Annex 24 for
classification of water bodies).
CURRENT AND PROJECTED
NEEDS
Determine the current needs and future requirements for water supply
service. The analysis should also show the existing water supply
service needs of the city/municipality in terms of the following:
1. Sufficiency/insufficiency of the existing water supply for domestic,
commercial, industrial, agricultural and other uses.
2. Needs for improvement of water supply, distribution system,
facilities and services, rates, water quality, etc.
3. Improvement/upgrading needs of existing major water resources in
the locality. Determine existing and potential sources of pollution.
4. Other alternative sources of water that can be tapped for future
development.
5. Projected water demand for the city/municipality. Coordinate with
the local water districts/cooperatives or the LWUA, whichever is
available in the area, on how to determine the water demand of the
locality. Computation may be guided by the following standard
requirement developed by LWUA:

complete treatment (coagulation,
sedimentation, filtration and
disinfection) in order to meet the
NSDW.
