The 2.3-km floodwall with boulevard stretching from Puntod-Kauswagan Bridge to JR Borja Bridge in Cagayan de Oro City is now almost done. The river boulevard has a 11.5m wide asphalt concrete road pavement (7.0 m wide carriageway, 2.0m road shoulder, and 2.5m wide parallel parking bay) and 5m wide public resting area on both sides.

The river boulevard has these access points: JR. Borja Bridge, Puntod, Abellanosa St. (below Marcos Bridge), and Montalban Street. Shown below is the junction at Puntod-Kauswagan Bridge.
