Source-derived summary

The Bukidnon–Davao Road, often called as BuDa Road (a syllabic abbreviation of Bukidnon and Davao) and also known as Bukidnon–Davao City Road or conversely as Davao–Bukidnon Road, is a 140-kilometer (87 mi), two-to-four lane national primary highway that connects Davao City and the municipality of Maramag in Bukidnon.

The entire road forms part of National Route 10 (N10) of the Philippine highway network and a spur of Asian Highway 26 (AH26) of the Asian highway network.

History

Having been a local road connecting Talomo to Malagos in the then-town of Davao, the route was later extended north through the mountainous terrain to Bukidnon, forming the present-day highway.

On July 17, 2026, a section of the Bukidnon–Davao Road in Sitio Marahan, Barangay Marilog Proper, Davao City, collapsed due to a landslide. The collapse made the highway impassable, damaging 11 houses and displacing 14 families.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as road in the Philippines. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 24, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q56284025. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2026.

Critical limits

A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Use the entry as an orientation point, then follow its citations and revision history. Names, dates and institutional relationships should be checked against the original record.
