9-year-old bridge already needs replacement — DPWH | Inquirer News


The 30-month closure of a bridge connecting the cities of Makati and Mandaluyong, which is set to start this month, can affect about 40,000 vehicles daily, diverting them to inner streets and aggravating traffic conditions.

In a hearing held on Wednesday by the House committee on Metro Manila development, Director Virgilio Castillo of the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) explained why Estrella-Pantaleon Bridge already needed replacement even though it was opened only nine years ago.

Castillo gave Sept. 20 as the tentative date of the closure, but said it could still be moved as the DPWH was still in talks with the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) to come up with better traffic management plans addressing the expected gridlock.
