Шаблон:Infobox bridge The Guadalupe Bridge is a road bridge that connects the cities of Makati and Mandaluyong in Metro Manila, Philippines
Background
The modern-day Guadalupe Bridge, which is part of EDSA, consists of an inner bridge and two outer bridges.[1]
It was originally a narrow bridge that underwent replacement in the 1960s. Construction began in 1962 or 1963 and was finished on November 23, 1966.[2][3] It was later widened beginning in 1974.[4]
The two outer bridges were constructed in 1979 with Umali-Pajara Construction Company as its general contractor. The length of the bridge from its two abutments is Шаблон:Convert.[4] The outer bridges have 10 lanes in total and a junction at the Makati side of the bridge connects to J. P. Rizal Avenue. Each outer bridge is around Шаблон:Convert in width, has 5 lanes that measures Шаблон:Convert each and a Шаблон:Convert pedestrian sidewalk near the railings.[5] Located on its median of the road bridge is the Guadalupe station of EDSA Carousel, which began operations in 2020.[6]
A separate but unconnected tied-arch rail bridge of the Manila Metro Rail Transit System Line 3 exists above the road bridge. The rail bridge that hovers above the road bridge was constructed by the EEI Corporation has a length of Шаблон:Convert and a width of Шаблон:Convert.[7]
According to a December 2013 report by JICA, the Guadalupe Bridge has the highest traffic volume among 12 main bridges in Metro Manila,[8] with 220,000 vehicles crossing the bridge daily.[5]
Planned renovation
By 2016, the bridge has been identified as one of the structures expected to collapse following a hypothetical strong earthquake in Metro Manila.[9] Major repairs were done on the bridge in 2019.[10]
The outer bridges were replaced by three-span steel deck box girders while the inner bridge assessed by JICA to be in good condition was retrofitted.[1] The pedestrian sidewalk was expanded to Шаблон:Convert while the outer bridges continued to have 10 lanes in total.[11]
