‘Physical entity that enables economic
processes, supports and guides urban
and rural development, and integrates
the various communities…’

(National Framework for Physical Planning 2001-2030 by NLUC

and NEDA, 2002)
Physical link between:

Production – provides physical access to production

inputs and markets;
Protection – helps protects communities from hazards
by mitigating the impact of natural calamities; and
Settlements – integrating settlements to form a network
of areas that serve as production and consumption

Primary objective: provide adequate base/platform for social and
economic development
Eliminate current backlogs in the provision of, and access to, social
services
Upgrade quality of service and facilities to desired standards
Reduce vulnerability of community to environmental risks and disasters
Maintain integrity of environment
Provide adequate support to attain the projected levels of food self-
sufficiency and production targets
Support the realization of the chosen spatial strategy
Seeks to answer:
1. What are the existing infrastructure utilities and facilities in
the locality?
2. What are their physical conditions?
3. How well are these utilities and facilities managed and
maintained?
4. Are these adequate, efficient and reliable?
5. How can these existing utilities and facilities affect the
efficiency and effectiveness of other sectors’ performance?
6. Do these current utilities and facilities support the
development of the locality?
7. How can this sector meet the current and projected demands
and requirements of the population?
RA 10121 (Philippine Disaster Risk Reduction
and Management Act of 2010)

Establishment of Local Disaster Risk Reduction

and Management Office (LDRRMO) in every
province, city, and municipality

One function is to identify, assess, and manage

the hazards, vulnerabilities, and that may occur
in the locality
Ensure adequate and proper maintenance,
including preventive maintenance of existing
assets
Rehabilitate, whenever feasible, improve and
upgrade infrastructure facilities.

Construct new infrastructure facilities to cope

with the demands and requirements of the
population and production sectors
Appropriateness – whether infrastructure type matches the location,
level of settlement, and population it serves
Adequacy – capacity and quality of infrastructure in relation to the
demand for its use
Level of utility – refers to extent facility is used
Accessibility
Physical - expressed in terms of distance or travel time, including
cost from origin to destination
Design and quality of construction – inclusive infrastructure
