Binondo-Intramuros Bridge projectFOR the third time this year, the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) has again failed in its promise to open to the motoring public the Binondo-Intramuros Bridge. The P3.29-billion China-funded project is being implemented by the DPWH-Unified Project Management Office (UPMO) headed by Undersecretary Emil Sadain. It is supposed to be completed and opened to motorists in December, just in time for the holiday rush. According to Sadain, the ongoing construction of the Binondo-Intramuros Bridge project could possibly be opened to the motoring public in the first quarter of 2022. The Binondo-Intramuros Bridge will carry extra traffic of around 30,000 vehicles per day and will also help extend the life of existing Jones, Delpan and MacArthur Bridges by decongesting traffic.
