In Alicia, Isabela, RA 11737 establishes a standard LTO district office, whereas in Manolo Fortich, Bukidnon, RA 11738 establishes an LTO district office.

A formal district office of the LTFRB is established at Bacoor, Cavite, under RA 11739.

According to RAs 11740 and 11741, an LTO district office would be constructed in Balingasag, Misamis Oriental, and Liloan, Cebu.

The LTO extension office in Sigma, Capiz is converted into a regular district office under RA 11742. The relocated LTO office will now be in Dumalag, Capiz.

The statutes require the Secretary of Transportation to include the operationalization of the LTO and LTFRB district offices in the department’s program.

The yearly General Appropriations Act will provide funds for the operation of LTO offices.

Senator Grace Poe, who sponsored the measures in the Senate, stated that the new laws will improve transportation services and provide job opportunities in the communities.

“Our people will no longer have to travel long distances and wait in huge queues to receive a license or have their vehicles registered,” she added in a statement.
