MMDA Lists Alternate Routes for Various Road Works around Metro Manila

DPWH

On top of banning provincial buses along EDSA from Pasay City to Cubao in Quezon City starting July 15, the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) has issued traffic rerouting plans for various road works that will be done around the metro.

These are:

NLEX Drainage Enhancement Project along A. Bonifacio Road (starting July 1)

Work on the NLEX Drainage Enhancement Project is at a portion of the Balintawak Cloverleaf along A. Bonifacio Avenue Road from 11 pm to 4 am for 70 to 80 days. To give way for this project, the ramp of Balintawak Cloverleaf EDSA southbound will be closed to vehicular traffic.

Motorists are advised to take the following alternate routes:

Route 1: Vehicles coming from NLEX should take Smart Connect Interchange to Mindanao Avenue to destination. Exit to EDSA Monumento-bound and make a U-Turn to EDSA Southbound.

Route 2: Vehicles coming from Monumento to A. Bonifacio Avenue should turn right to Biglang Awa Street, left at Jasmine Street, straight to 11th Avenue, turn right at A. Bonifacio Avenue to destination.

 

Construction of an elevated guideway for the MRT 7 along North Avenue (starting July 2)

The construction of an elevated guideway for the MRT-7 begins today. It will be put up on North Avenue, from Mindanao to Veterans Hospital Gate area in the jurisdiction of Bagong Pag-asa and Project 6.

The construction will be done in two phases: from Veterans to Vertis North Gate and from Vertis North Gate of Mindanao Avenue.

 

Emergency leak repair on a large mainline along EDSA-Shaw Boulevard area (starting July 7)

Manila Water will conduct an emergency leak repair on its large mainline in the EDSA-Shaw Boulevard southbound area.

Pre-construction works will begin July 7 while construction proper will be undertaken on a 24/7 schedule starting July 14 until the next 30 days.

Vehicles turning right from EDSA to Shaw Boulevard will be diverted to Starmall premises to allow southbound buses and private vehicles to use the service road exclusively.

 

Replacement of Buendia Bridge (sometime in July)

The Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) is also set to build a stronger Buendia bridge along Buendia Avenue. The Buendia Bridge has been found with cracks and needs immediate replacement due to poor condition.

The MMDA has yet to give clearance for the construction of the new bridge which will be done in two phases.
