Aside from right-of-way problems, bottlenecks to project implementation come from the need to hire more manpower, both skilled and unskilled. Risk of slippagesSlippages in the DPWH projects may seem like the past, but the risk is still very much apparent, more so if right-of-way problems are not efficiently dealt with. This has always been the weakness of previous – and even current – infrastructure projects. This has never been more apparent than with the Metro Manila Skyway Stage 3 project that broke ground in April 2014. Contractors, in their haste to finish the projects within schedule, are forced to accept workers that have little or no rudimentary knowledge of construction work.
