Binondo-Intramuros Bridge: China-Funded Landmark Project
A new attraction in the City of Manila for residents, bikers, and park-goers, as the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) opens the new linear park and pedestrian stairs of the iconic Binondo-Intramuros Bridge, which is part of the ₱3.6 billion infrastructure grant by China under the Agreement on Economic and Technical Cooperation in 2017, is the first UPMO-implemented infrastructure project in partnership with the Government of the Republic of China. This is a vital infrastructure project in the Philippines. It will connect the districts of Binondo in Manila and Intramuros in the City of Manila, providing a much-needed linkage between these two historically and economically significant areas. The construction of this bridge aims to alleviate traffic congestion in the area and improve overall accessibility for commuters and motorists. Once completed, the Binondo-Intramuros Bridge is expected to enhance transportation efficiency and contribute to the continued development of these iconic districts in Manila.
