Abstract: ALIPARO, JOHN MADIZON S., BONGULTO, JEZREIL C., GOLEZ, MARY GRACE L., and VICEDO, CHRISTIAN NEL T., Implications of Build Build Build (BBB) Programs on The Economic Growth of The Philippines: A Study on Road Infrastructures. Undergraduate Thesis. Bachelor of Science in Economics. Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite. August 2022. Adviser: Dr. Jenny Beb F. Ebo. The aim of this study is to examine the implications of road infrastructures under the Build, Build, Build (BBB) Program on the economic growth of the Philippines. Specifically, the study aimed to 1) discuss the past and current status of road infrastructures expenditure from 1986 to 2020; 2) identify the benefits gained of road infrastructures under the BBB Program in terms of accessibility, lower transportation costs, and traffic efficiency; 3) describe the effects of road infrastructures under the BBB Program on the employment status (EDUEXP), foreign direct investment (FDI), and road length (Road); 4) determine the effect of road infrastructure under the BBB program to the economic growth; and 5) determine the implications of road infrastructures under the BBB Program on economic growth. The data used such as total numbers of employed individual, total foreign direct investments, total road length in kilometer, and total number of populations from 1986 to 2020 were gathered from different reports published by Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) and other government publications and agencies. These indicators were analyzed and examined using multiple regression to determine the implications of BBB program to economic growth of the Philippines. Different diagnostic tests namely, ADF unit root, heteroskedasticity, Jarque-Bera test, Ramsey test, Breusch Godfrey test and Durbin Watson test were also included in this study. Findings on this study showed that among the previous presidents from 1986 to 2016, the Duterte Administration spent the most on infrastructure with a total of PHP 1 ,980, 183 billion. The benefits gained in accessibility in terms of farm-to-market roads stated that Region VI or the Western Visayas has the highest road project completed, accumulating 59.32 kilometers and in terms of educational accessibility, Luzon with 76,915 has the most constructed classrooms out of the 150, 149 total. Additionally, the Little Baguio, in terms of accessibility for health care services, has the longest road that has been built measuring 26.68 kilometers making it the most accessible place in La Paz for tourists. With 252 beds, the lung center's hospital project has the maximum bed capacity. Moreover, the results also showed that the transportation cost in terms of ease congested road, cut to PhP 2.13 billion per day by 2022. The improved access routes enable farmers to distribute their goods without having to pay for transportation, saving them money on hauling costs. As the road was expanded, traffic efficiency in terms of travel time improved and the amount of time it takes a vehicle to move from one place to another decreased. For the safe road and mobility in traffic efficiency, it reduced the collision and the severity of injury outcomes in the event of crash, road, and road characteristics. Furthermore, the statistical results of the study also revealed that the road infrastructure has a significant effect on foreign direct investment and employment status except for road length at 0.01 percent level of significance. This implies that these variables have a future effect on the economic growth of the country and suggests to add an expenditure in road infrastructures which can help to boost the country's competitiveness.
