Ilocos Sur Northbound: Tagudin to Sinait

AH-26 Maharlika Highway in Ilocos Sur Northbound from Tagudin to Sinait. Road condition is good though there are pockets of road & bridges repair along the way. The repairs in Santiago & Candon bridges resulted in long traffic primarily due to the absence of city/ town center bypass roads.
