i never got the logic of widening road/bridge, only to have several lanes merge into a single bottleneck...it might even be cause for more accidents/driving mischief.

Halos lahat kasi ng top brass engineers natin nasa Europe or US atbp. Kung andito man teaching industry naman pinasok. Ewan ko bakit?

re trucks using bridges
wala naman enforcement sa atin na nagbabawal dumaan ang mga overweight trucks sa mga tulay
i'm saying enforcement ha, not rules
meron rules -- meron weight limit
pero wala enforcement
kinakabahan ako tuwing nakakasabay ko sa tulay mga overloaded 10 wheeler dumptrucks (those carrying sand)
or mga lowbed trailer na may kargang 20 or 30 ton heavy machinery
wala sumisita sa mga yan pag dumadaan sa mga tulay

Bawal naman ang Trucks don sa Estrella bridge.. so it's not a weight issue.. as I said.. mukhang matibay pa naman yung tulay pag dumadaan ako don..
Baka may kikita dyan kaya kailangan palitan nang bago.. tsk tsk tsk..
there was this time lakas ng ulan sobra taas ng tubig sa ilog under del monte bridge (del monte ave QC) tapos kasabay ko isang tractor-trailer na may kargang excavator
i know excavators -- that one is at least 25 tons
dagdag mo pa ung bigat ng truck+trailer
load limit yata ng bridge 20T iirc
wala sumisita sa ganyan
The thing with all administrations...NOT JUST THIS ONE...is that they don't wanna spend for ROW for road widening. Gagawa ng maluwag na tulay tapos papasok din sa masikip na kalye...
Ever wonder why PNR and Northrail never expanded? It's because several admins could not address ROW issues (and don't want to spend for it).
Found this old article..

Other than the Sta Monica to Lawton Bridge component of the Bonifacio Global City (BGC) – Ortigas Center Link Road Project, DPWH has identified the construction of 12 new bridges crossing the Pasig-Marikina River and the Manggahan Floodway as an urgent priority to provide fixed links over these rivers that will increase the road network capacity in Metro Manila.
Two (2) of the bridges namely construction of state-of-the-art Binondo-Intramuros and Estrella-Pantelon Bridges in Manila and Makati/Mandaluyong will be constructed under full grant financing of the Republic of China.
Other planned bridges are the North and South Habor Bridge, 2nd Ayala Bridge (Carlos Palanca-San Marcelino, Beata-F.Y. Manalo Bridge (Pandacan-Sta. Ana), F. Blumentritt-Antipolo Bridge, Estrella-Pantaleon Bridge, Kabayani-Katipunan Bridge, Reposo-Guatemala Bridge, J.P. Rizal-Yale Bridge, G. Gabriel St.-Mercury Ave. Bridge, East Bank-West Bank Bridge 1, and East Bank-West Bank Bridge 2.

If there's a problem with that bridge because of weight issue sa dami ng dumadaan na vehicles, wouldn't it be more of a problem if they widen the bridge yet pag baba eh two lane lang? Kasi that will create bottle neck and in turn, instead na may moving vehicles, matraffic ang sasakyan sa tulay. Mas delikado ata yun kasi not moving yung vehicles dun and mas mabigat?
Not an engineer here. Naisip ko rin lang yung Jones Bridge during Nazareno. Di daw designed yun to carry static weight of people na naglalakad.
Obviously there are powerful forces behind this project. If it was just constructed 2011, Mali din yung math ng nagsulat sa article. It's not 9 years old. 7 years old pa lang yung bridge.

And as a fellow tsikoteer mentioned earlier, if it was really that urgent, they would have pushed it no matter what. They seem quite capable of moving Heaven and earth to get rid of their critics, despite ant hard evidence... what more if they can use public safety as a reason?
