EXECUTIVE ORDER NO. 487 - UPDATING THE KILOMETER STATIONINGS OF ALL ROADS

By virtue of the powers vested in me by law, I, FERDINAND E. MARCOS, President of the Philippines, do hereby direct the updating and/or relocating of the kilometer stationings along all roads.  

The Rizal Monument at the Rizal Park in Manila will remain as Km. 0+000 and all stationings in Central and Northern Luzon will be carried along the Manila North Road and Cagayan Valley Road while all stationings in Southern Luzon will be carried along the Manila South Road.

As a result of the near completion of the PAN-PHILIPPINE HIGHWAY, the kilometer stationing in Matnog, Sorsogon, where the ferry terminal site is to be located, shall be reckoned from Km. 0+000 in Manila.

The distances in the nautical miles served by the ferry services of the PAN-PHILIPPINE HIGHWAY across the San Bernardino and Surigao Straits shall be converted to kilometers to determine the kilometer stationings at San Isidro, Northern Samar, Liloan, Southern Leyte; and Lipata West in Surigao City where the ferry terminal sites are to be located.  

The kilometer stationing at San Isidro, Northern Samar shall be the reckoning point of all roads in the provinces of Eastern Samar, Northern Samar, Samar, Leyte and Southern Leyte.

The kilometer stationing at Lipata West, Surigao City shall be the reckoning point of all roads in the main island of Mindanao.

For the islands of Panay and Negros, Km. 0+000 shall be in front of the provincial Capitol Buildings in Iloilo City and Bacolod City, respectively.

For the island of Mindoro, Km. 0+000 shall be in front of the Provincial Capitol Building in Calapan, Oriental Mindoro.

For all other island provinces, Km. 0+000 shall be in front of the Provincial Capitol Building in the provincial capital of the province.

The Secretary of Public Highways is hereby directed to implement this project.

Done in the City of Manila, this 20th day of September, in the year of Our Lord, nineteen hundred and seventy-seven.
