    By the way, this is different from Metro Pacific's SLEX-NLEX connector road.

    what can you say on this?

    Skyway Stage 3 to cut Buendia-Balintawak travel to 15 minutes

    Espana/Quezon Ave is one of my daily travel in the morning, I might have to avoid that place while this is development.

    It will be traffic hell while this is being done. But it will be Skyway heaven crossing Metro Manila when finished. For a fee of course.

    I'm from Laguna, so when I go to Manila I use the Skyway more often than not. The expense is way less than the time that would be spent if there was heavy traffic below.

    Like they say, "you can't make an omelet without breaking any eggs"

    The traffic will just be like the time they were building the MRT, the EDSA-Ayala underpass, the BGC-Buendia overpass and all the other works

    Let's just hope that this new road will ease the MM traffic

    ^Not to mention, when the Skyway, SLEX and NLEX were built. We can only hope there's good traffic management and clear barriers/signages.

    My main concern too is the design for the exit points. If it goes down to a bottleneck, traffic will back up ala Amorsolo exit.

    So this project will be built along Araneta Avenue? Hopefully the traffic on Quezon Avenue during construction won't be bad since the underpass is there already... Would be interesting what will happen to the IS colonies when they expand the road for the project...

    It connects Skyway Stage 1 at Buendia, runs along Osmeņa Highway, Quirino Ave. towards Plaza Dilao, continues crossing Pasig River, then cuts through at the back of SM Sta. Mesa towards G. Araneta Ave., crosses Aurora Blvd., E. Rodriguez and Quezon Ave. towards Sgt. E. Rivera then along A. Bonifacio towards Balintawak.

    coming from araneta, sana hindi na pinakaliwa sa c3, straight tagos na lang sa gilid ng grace christian school para sa cloverleaf na landing. usually traffic din yung segment na yun ng a bonifacio (c3 to edsa). yun lang nga, guguluhin ulit cloverleaf.

    Paco was known as Dilao because of the Amaryllis plants that were once plentiful on this district.

    meron din nagsasabi na kaya plaza dilao (dilaw - yellow) kasi madami daw japanese dyan sa area na yan nung Spanish time.. kaya tinawag nang mga spanish na Plaza Dilaw (referring to the jap)

    plaza dilao.
    it memorializes the Dilao of old.
    Dilao, because of the skin tone of the chinese and japanese people that it was intended to memorialize.
    a group of japanese Christians, who chose to self-exile to the philippines, rather than give up their religion, among which was Takayama Ukon.
    Blessed Justo Takayama Ukon's statue graces the rotonda of plaza dilao. before he self-exiled to the philippines, he was one of the more famous samurais in old feudal japan. google him, folks.
    he was beatified just recently, in 2017.
    the story was mentioned by kim atienza in his 10-11 am dzmm program.
