Improvement of Sta. Rosa Road
Rehabilitating the Sta. Rosa Road is a significant milestone in Congresswoman Bernos’ goal for a more progressive Abra. Like her husband and predecessor as the house representative for the Lone District of Abra, JB Bernos, Congresswoman Ching Bernos advocates for infrastructure developments, just like this road project, in an effort to create direct benefits for local economies, stimulate growth, and uplift the quality of life for the public.

This project involved a variety of improvements designed to increase the road’s safety and accessibility. Specific upgrades included:
- Widening the road helped ease congestion and accommodate higher traffic flow.

- Better drainage was installed to reduce flooding risks and protect both the road and nearby areas.
- Signage and Markings: New road signs and lane markings were added to enhance safety for drivers and pedestrians.
These improvements are set to greatly benefit the local population by making transportation more efficient and safer.
