 A SMOOTH RIDE AHEAD: UNVEILING THE NEW ROAD THAT ENHANCES CAMPUS CONNECTIVITY AND ACCESSIBILITY

by Rhealyn G. Cala

    The rumble of motorcycles and the chatter of students have always been a familiar soundtrack at Capiz State University (CAPSU) Burias Campus. But this year, a new melody has joined the chorus - the smooth hum of cars and soft walking sounds navigating the newly-constructed road in the campus near the canteen, the College of Management, and the Department of Agriculture and Biosystems Engineering.

    The steps taken in making our dreams come at their truest have always been a critical part of gaining a triumphant victory. But what if the way that you're taking is slippery? Messy? Or worse, not safe enough to support your whole journey? 

    That is exactly what the CAPSU Burias Administration realized when they decided to make a joint effort to construct a new road on the Campus. 

    For years, the path was the most unlikable way to take when people on the Campus were strolling around, going back and forth from different buildings, or heading home. Even though it may seem to be the most convenient route, they would never choose to cross such a road that looks mediocre, mundane, and muddy, especially when a rain shower pours. You wouldn't want to navigate treacherous terrain, risking falls and delays, would you? 

    Furthermore, the lack of proper lighting posed safety concerns, particularly for students walking alone at night. The old road was a constant reminder of the need for improvement, a need that the University Administration was determined to address. And yes, they did it! 

    This paved path has been a long-awaited addition to the school's infrastructure, which has brought a massive wave of change, impacting not only the daily lives of students but also the overall atmosphere of the school community. A wide, convenient way that provides a safe and efficient route for everyone to go for a walk or travel.

    Seeing its artistic vibe, we can say that it not only provides a dedicated access point that alleviates congestion but also offers an instagrammable and captivating view as a continuous and narrow road. As the road is lined with vibrant landscaping of a greener environment, it surely looks aesthetically pleasing and has an inviting atmosphere.

   As CAPSU Burias continuously grows and evolves, the new pathway will stand as proof of the University's dedication to its students and its unwavering commitment to progress. Now, it will not be known simply as a newly constructed campus landscape but as a symbol of a journey toward brighter futures that students, faculty, and staff will be looking forward to.
