To contribute to efficiency improvements of road travel in Bataan, Cavite, and the National Capital Region.
DESCRIPTION
The Bataan-Cavite Interlink Bridge Project (“BCIB Project”) comprises about 32.15 kilometer (km) fixed crossing over Manila Bay, consisting of (i) 2 climate-resilient cable-stayed navigation bridges with main spans of 900 and 400 meters (m) connecting Mariveles, Bataan to Naic, Cavite; (ii) 24 km of marine viaducts; and (iii) 8 km of approach roads. It will include a U-turn facility near the Corregidor Island for future connection. It also includes a capacity building program to ensure adequate capacity of the government in operation and maintenance (O&M) and management of the BCIB and future large and complex bridges. A tourist center and supporting facilities will also be established at the north approach of BCIB to enhance tourism in Bataan Province and Corregidor Island. The BCIB Project is expected to be financed in three tranches.
Tranche 1 (the “Project”) will finance a segment of the civil works and consultancy service components involving the navigation bridges, marine viaducts, and approach roads. |
