TIA po..

yes, it's called makati-mandaluyong bridge.

by the way, if you're fcoming rom mckinley hills, i believe you mean Fort Bonifacio, not Fort Santiago (that's in Manila), not Taguig.

from McKinley Hills, you may take the magallanes-pasay road-makati ave route or mckinley road-ayala ave-makati ave route.

by the way, where's your destination in "north"? in my experience, just take c-5/edsa. all of the vehicles are moving slow, but at least, they're moving. i believe it's better than going to narrow roads inside mandaluyong/san juan/quezon city. i wouldn't recommend that as an alternate to edsa/c-5. but you may try if you want.

thanks sir jedi..
sorry i was really referring to fort bonifacio.. my destination up north is trinoma or mindanao avenue area.. my usual route coming from mckinley hills is to exit at market2x going to C-5, then drive up way north..(i prefered C5, as i find it faster than edsa although a bit farther)..the problem is the bottleneck starting from the elevated u-turn piles up to that market2x exit..the time it will move fast enough is just when you reached the bridge.. i didnt mean to use the narrow roads as an alternative to the wider roads, only to avoid the bottlenecks.
