Road Networks



Pandan is connected to adjacent municipalities of Sebaste in the south, Libertad on the northwest, and Nabas on the north by a twenty-six kilometer National Highway. The stretch of the National Highway is a concrete paved road except from Barangay Bagumbayan to Libertad Town which at present is under construction. Pandan is significant in terms of transportation as it is the passage-way of buses plying the Libertad-San Jose-Iloilo route and San-Jose-Kalibo-Iloilo route. As in most municipalities, the public market has become the transportation center of Pandan. Public utility vehicles going to and from Pandan could be seen crowding the limited parking spaces in the town market.
