Acrow Global Limited (trading as Mabey Bridge)

The famous MacArthur Highway, which takes traffic to the northern provinces from Metro Manila, is an important arterial route. An agreement with the Office of the President, implemented by the Philippines Department of Public Works and Highways, called for the design and construction of a new flyover to alleviate traffic on the highway.
A prefabricated steel flyover was chosen as an alternative to a concrete flyover, offering quicker erection, minimised foundation and footprint and with considerably less disruption during installation – a key advantage in a heavily populated urban environment like Malolos.
The bridge was manufactured at Mabey Bridge’s UK manufacturing facility and shipped to the Philippines in standard ISO containers. The finished construction, measuring 280m in length and 7.35m in width was completed in just 63 days.
The new structure has successfully helped to alleviate traffic congestion in the area.
