The Binondo-Intramuros Bridge Is Opening Before 2021 Ends

Construction on the Binondo-Intramuros Bridge in Manila continues during the pandemic and will be ready before the year ends, Public Works Sec. Mark Villar said Thursday.
The 600-meter bridge utilizes arc type technology to connect two of Manila's oldest and most popular districts. It is part of the EDSA decongestion program and is made possible through a grant from China.
"By September this year, matatapos po itong bridge," public works secretary Mark Villar said in a video.
Another component in the decongestion program—the Estrella-Pantaleon bridge—will be ready come April or May, Villar said. The bridge is seen to connect Mandaluyong and Makati. Check out how the Binondo-Intramuros bridge is shaping up.
