Several previously closed roads in Glan, Sarangani have been reopened as the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) continues clearing operations following the impact of the southwest monsoon or Habagat, which was intensified by Typhoon Inday.

The reopening comes after President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. directed concerned agencies to immediately respond and assist areas affected by the severe weather conditions.

Among the roads now accessible to motorists is the Sarangani–Davao del Sur Coastal Road, including sections in Barangay Kapatan and Sitio Nacolyael in Barangay Small Margus. These areas were temporarily closed after landslides caused by heavy rains brought by the weather disturbance.

DPWH personnel remain deployed on the ground to remove debris, ensure road safety, and restore normal transportation in affected communities.

Authorities continue to monitor road conditions as clearing efforts remain ongoing in areas that experienced damage due to the recent weather system.
