Yup yup, nalalabuan talaga ako sa C-6 implementation ngayon...:nuts:
Yung dati kasi wala namang major residential areas na tatamaan, ngayon kasi biglang lumiko pa-west mula San Mateo patungong Quezon City kung saan maraming tatamaan na densely populated areas, dapat sana diretso sa Rodriguez yan hanggang San Jose del Monte City, Bulacan...agree ako dyan

:ohno: ay naku po! halos walang urban planning yang lalawigan ng Rizal. Ilang taon lang at mahihirapan sila lalo sapagkat wala silang sapat na infra hanggang ngayon. Yun ang isa sa pinakamalaking kakulangan nila. Dapat pinlano nila nang mabuti noon pa ng wala pang masyadong tao sa lalawigan na yan.

^^ wag naman sanang mangyari sa Rizal ang sinapit ng Cavite sa traffic congestion. At least dito sa Cavite dalawa ang senador namin. Dalawa silang nagpaplano ng solusyon (plano lang naman)...

Nakakalungkot mang sabihin pero nangyayari na... at lalong lumalala habang tumatagal...:ohno:
Specifically sa Gen. Luna at ilan pang kalye sa San Mateo-Rodriguez area at sa Ortigas extension at iba pang kalsada sa Cainta-Taytay area...

oo nga ortigas extension at marcos highway... malala na talaga... nagflow na urbanization sa Rizal... kaya yun

Ok back to C-6.....
Saan kaya specifically dadaan yung C-6 bago dumating ng Commonwealth Avenue?
Idudugtong o idadaan kaya sa Batasan-San Mateo Road bilang interchange sa Gen. Luna Avenue?
Sa madaling salita, ano ang dadaanan ng Segment 5 ng C-6?, hindi ko kasi masyado ma-visualize yung alignment map na nasa source...:nuts:

Kailan ba isinalarawan sa mapa yung C6 project sa pic? Luma ata ang mapa nito ah. Batay sa mapa, dadaan ang c6 sa hangganan ng Marikina at tatawid sa Marcos hiway. eh ngayon, wala kong makikitang lupang bakante sa hangganan ng Marikina.

Yup, yan din ang duda ko dito..., baka ang susundin pa rin ay yung ganitong configuration...


drinowing ko ung dadaanan ng C-6 sa Rizal., (according to that wiki article.,)
http://i15.tinypic.com/6gwcc40.jpg


-The C-6 will connect SLEX and NLEX through the ff. route:
--SLEX--Taguig--Angono, Rizal--Antipolo, Rizal--San Mateo, Rizal--Rodriguez(Montalban), Rizal--San Jose del Monte, Bulacan--NLEX

Based from the map below, it seems C-6 will no longer pass Angono, mukhang hanggang Taytay na lang.

ah, ikaw mismo ang gumuhit? :D

ay, ang magkakabilang dulo ng c6 ay Slex/Daang Hari/coastal road at NLEX/ Bulacan (???) hindi SLEX/Bicutan. :D

Nalalabuan parin ako dito. sabi nila, four lanes eto and yet, the actual skeletal road sa Taguig ay TWO LANES Lang.

C-6 is not a 4 laned highway, it's just 2 laned road with some weird embankment on the right

Not sure lang if C6 is what they are mentioning here but it does look bright, either this or the skyway.

Projects on as gov’t provides guarantee

TWO INFRASTRUCTURE projects will break ground within the first half under a joint public-private sector pump-priming plan, officials yesterday said.

The progress comes as the government-run Philippine Export Import Credit Agency (Philexim) will be guaranteeing loans made by the private sector to finance such projects.

Commercial banks were said to be hesitant to support the shared stimulus plan, requiring that the state back loans for covered infrastructure projects.

The government balked at a full guarantee and the primary proponent, the Philippine Chamber of Commerce and Industry (PCCI), said the proposed P100-billion fund could be abandoned.

Trade Secretary Peter B. Favila, however, told reporters yesterday that the government will issue a list of projects the private sector can invest in and then provide guarantees.

"Philexim will guarantee 85% of the project cost while the 15% should come as [the private proponent’s] equity," Mr. Favila said at the sidelines of a government economic briefing, adding that projects will only qualify for surety if they are listed under the 2004-2010 Medium Term Philippine Development Plan.

"We already have ready-to-go projects ... such as connecting NLEX (North Luzon Expressway) to C-5," Mr. Favila said in Filipino.

PCCI Chairman Emeritus Donald G. Dee confirmed this yesterday, saying the private sector was amenable to the 85% guarantee.

"That’s what we have agreed on. Two projects ... will be on the ground hopefully in three months time," he said, declining to elaborate.

The government share of the fund — P50 billion — may be spent on other infrastructure projects separate from the ones the private sector will back, Mr. Dee said.

"We will make our own decisions. There is no more shared fund per se, but a guarantee feature instead," he said.

The National Development Corp., previously tagged as the P100-billion fund’s disbursing agency, will no longer be involved, Mr. Favila said. — Jessica Anne D. Hermosa

idudugtong ba ito sa manila-east road sa taytay?

Dadaan din ba ito sa Sta. Maria Bulacan? Puro sa SJDM lang ah, MRT7, C-6, NLEE. Dito wala. hehe

Question lng po, ano po original plan ng c6? ung nakapost po b dito e latest n c6. ung end ng c6 eh sa sjdm po b san po banda dun? magmeet b ito ng MRT 7?

"C-6 is not a 4 laned highway, it's just 2 laned road with some weird embankment on the right"

So in effect this much awaited highway turns out to be another Tandang Sora. Yaik.

wla na ba talaga balita dito sa C-6? :ohno:

C-6? I won't be surprised if there is no news lately. It's been in the plans for years if not decades. A few more years won't hurt. (or would it?)

It will be started by the next equinox. :lol:

siguro pag napagispin nilang wala ng mukukuhaan ng tongpats saka nila maalala gawin yan...haaay gobyerno ng naman

It will be started by the next equinox. :lol:

really? I'll expect the start of construction this 20th then? now, that is news!

River ferry to Napindan links up with C-6 route

The Pasig River ferry sails further upstream to Napindan Channel while the Department of Public Works and Highways starts this month its P48-billion C-6 Expressway alignment.

Nautical Transport Services Inc., ferry owner, opened a satellite station in Nagpayong, Pinagbuhatan in Pasig City near the C-6 Napindan bridge, at its built-up section that doubles as a flood-control dike on the Laguna lake shoreline.

Ed Bondad, Nautical Transport president, said the entire 27-km downstream to Plaza Mexico in Intramuros, Manila could be covered in an hour and a half of traffic-free cruising.

“We’re doing 24 trips on weekdays,” he said, adding that at peak capacity of 150 passengers per boat daily, his six-vessel fleet of air-conditioned catamarans is rated for at least 3,000 riders.

Bondad said the Marikina line would have stops in Eastwood, Quezon City along with Riverbanks and Sta. Elena in Marikina City.

The ferry service is operated by the Pasig River Rehabilitation Commission, an agency under the Department of Environment and Natural Resources.

Malacañang has ordered the commission to lead the cleanup of the waterway and its tributaries by regulating dumping of domestic and industrial waste, relocating settlers, improving water quality and promoting its use as a linear park and an alternative transport route among other tasks.

According to Public Works senior undersecretary Manuel Bonoan, C-6 is a six-lane tollway connecting the North Luzon Expressway in Marilao, Bulacan and the South Luzon Expressway in Bicutan, Taguig City, designed to decongest the road network in Metro Manila and spur growth in Central Luzon and the Southern Tagalog provinces.

“The project is now under feasibility study. Within the year, the department will start implementing the first segment,” he said.

When the 65-km road is completed, motorists from Bulacan going to Laguna or Cavite and vice versa will be able to bypass congested main roads in the metropolis.

“Definitely, it will have an impact on traffic. The project will relieve the traffic on either Edsa or C-5,” said Bonoan.

As programmed, P39.195 billion of the road’s budget goes to engineering and civil works while P4.841 billion takes care of right-of-way acquisition; construction targets completion in 2018.

The road will cut through San Jose del Monte City in Bulacan, turn southward and pass through Rodriguez (formerly Montalban), San Mateo, Antipolo City, Angono, and Taytay in Rizal province, entering Taguig to reach the south tollway.

C-6 will be fused with the proposed Laguna de Bay Coastal Road to Alabang, Muntinlupa City, proceeding to Cavite province’s Bacoor, Imus, Kawit, Noveleta, and Cavite City.

The infrastructure package is bundled up in three segments: North Section, NLEX to San Jose del Monte, Bulacan (16.4 km); East Section, San Jose to Marcos Highway, Antipolo (25.5 km); and Southeast Section, Marcos Highway to SLEX (22.8 km).

source (http://www.manilastandardtoday.com/?page=police1_mar19_2009)

This C6 with only 6 lanes and a much longer route is the worst when compared with the projected expansion of the much shorter Roxas Blvd/Road 10 and the linkage of SLEX and NLEX over the PNR right of way. :ohno:

:ohno::ohno::ohno::ohno: bakit naman ganun katagal ang tanda ko na nun bago ko ma experience yan

This C6 with only 6 lanes and a much longer route is the worst when compared with the projected expansion of the much shorter Roxas Blvd/Road 10 and the linkage of SLEX and NLEX over the PNR right of way. :ohno:

C6 highway is not a replacement for the other shorter road from SLEX to NLEX but to give the people in the eastern portion of manila (cainta, taytay, san mateo, angono, antipolo, etc) a faster way to go north or to the south. They will no longer need to use C5 or Edsa.

You can view the C6 presentation to UATC here (uactphilippines.org) (http://uactphilippines.org/images/stories/uact/media/november/presentation.pdf)

Oh yeah, that article lies. C6 is just TWO LANES.

C6 is badly needed in Rizal because there are traffic gridlocks everywhere.. If this happens, Pasig area will be relieve of some vehicular volume coming from Rizal. I remembered when I am still working in Ortigas, I need 2++ hours to be there... 1 hour to be in Pasig area, and at least 1 hour from floodway to Ortigas. This road will also be beneficial to Pasig and the surrounding towns.

Update: May biglang lumitaw na DPWH banner na sa may Baybreeze-C6 crossing. Mukhang kanina lang nilagay...

Yung A Bonifacio Ave. ba ng Upper Bicutan dadaanan ng C6? Ang lawak na kasi, pinalakihan both sides.

kanina habang nagbabasa ako ng mapa sa national...
meron nang nakalagay kung saan yung route ng C6...

Pakitang- tao lang iyan ng DPWH. Matagal pa iyang C6 na iyan. Marami pang kalsada at riles ng tren ang hindi pa tapos.

Maraming legal or court battles pa ang kailangang pagdaanan para magkaroon ng right of way for C6.

cguro patayin na muna natin tong thread na to kasi maiinis ka lang kaka hintay eh lets start this up again pag may earth works na

i guess hindi ito magagamit ng mga pulitiko for their 2010 campaign hindi tulad nung 2007 when taguig city mayor tinga used this for his reelection. i still remember the billboards saying "maraming salamat mayor tinga para sa road dike" or something to that effect.

so T_NGA ang bumoto sa TINGA haahha

^actually, dito sa SSC, tinga is more popular than binay.

Something is up sa C6, I spotted two surveyors dun sa Baybreeze crossing kaninang 6AM...

Baka nag papacute lang sila! :lol:

^photo op? next year na kasi ang eleksyon.

*revives*

According sa pinsan ko, un Southbound ng C-6 (Baybreeze - Bicutan) ay nilagyan na ng mga canal. Tapos, inaspalto naraw un kalsada. Kaso un northbound (Baybreeze- Taytay) hinde parin daw ginagawa.

^^ nabuhay ulit sa wakas....
meron na progress.... pero canal lng..=(

Mukhang hinaabol lang un road work para sa SONA ni gloria :lol:

Oo nga pala, a few days ago bago ginawa un aspalto. Napansin ko na pinatakbo un flood control system ng C-6 sa ibabaw ng Taguig river. It's the first time i saw it running since it was built back in 2005...

I plot the map of C-6 as per the description in Wikipedia.

*sings* Walang ganyan sa pinas :D

Nakapunta ako ng C-6 kahapon and napansin ko na may kalsada na at may sidewalks pa At napasin ko na all the floodgates along C-6 are now operational dahil mukhang sinara nila ang mga gates....

Nakatira ako sa baybreeze kaya ngayon ay lubog kami sa baha.

yari na ang C6?

Just the Taguig portion of C-6...Kaso putol parin ang C-6 pagdating sa ilog pasig sa dulo. Dami paring bahay..

Salamat sa picture :banana:

It's too narrow and is a sure candidate for future traffic jam. :ohno:

It's only two lanes...not the 6 lanes as it was reported..

ginagamit na ba yan??? at anong part ang tapos na??

Ginagawa na ang mga kalsada at sewage system at operational narin ang floodgates nyan....Kaso, nung dirt road pa yan. Ginagamit yan from Baybreeze to bicutan daily at meron din dumadaan papunta sa pasig. Kaso, mga motor lang ang nakakapasok mula nung sinara sya back in 2007 from vehicular traffic.

^^Hhhmmmm... assessment ko mukhang matagal pa talaga bago maging complete ang C6. Ang dami pang dapat ayusin, lalo na yung squatters. Parang ganito rin ang EDSA nong Highway 54 pa sya dirt road din at tanging mga kalabaw lang ang pwdeng dumaan. :lol:

C6 is from kawit to bacoor to susana heights in muntinglupa.

C-6 is a planned superhighway that will act as a beltway of Metro Manila, so that buses and other transportation vehicles coming from the southern provinces to the northern provinces (and vice versa) need not pass through Metro Manila, thus preventing traffic in the metropolis. When built, C-6 will follow the proposed Metro Manila Tollway route eastward starting from its terminus at the North Luzon Expressway in Marilao in Bulacan province. C-6 will then pass through San Jose Del Monte in Bulacan, turn southward and pass through Montalban, San Mateo, Antipolo City, Angono, and Taytay in Rizal province, finally entering Taguig. The Metro Manila Tollway will continue southwest to the South Luzon Expressway ending at the Bicutan interchange. C-6 will continue southward along the proposed Laguna de Bay Coastal Road running along the coast of the Laguna de Bay lake into Muntinlupa. C-6 will then turn westward, leaving the Laguna de Bay Coastal Road, pass through the elite Alabang district of Muntinlupa and continue on to Cavite province, eventually connecting to R-1.

There are also rumors of a proposal to build a C-7 circumferential road at an even greater radial distance from Manila than the proposed C-6, but government officials have not confirmed this.

mukhang hindi pa feasible sa ngayon ang C7, hehehe...
pero hindi ko na maimagine kung saan ilulusot yun :))
iikot na ata sa buong laguna de bay?

^^ un nga rin ang iniisip ko o dadaan un sa Infanta Quezon... basta C-6 muna bago C-7

Kung iikot sa Laguna de Bay, maybe it would pass through Laguna and Rizal or even as far as Quezon to Central Luzon. For a shorter route, they could try connecting Cavite and Bataan. That way, we do not have to circle the land around Manila Bay to go to Bataan and Zambales from Southern Luzon. This will also shorten the distance going to Pangasinan.

Is it going to be called -C6 then. :lol:

That should be possible technologically as ive driven many times over a bridge that bridges more or less the same distance between Ternate and Mariveles .

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oresund_Bridge

This is the Oresund bridge between Sweden and Denmark it's main section is about 8 kilometers after which it enters a tunnel built into an artificial island which can be seen at the end of the bridge in that pic , the bridge also carries a two way rail line under the road .

In the case of the Manila bay the bridge could cross the bay and connect to caballo and corregidor islands ( perhaps expand fort drum battleship island to accomodate a piece of the bridge ) before connecting south of mariveles to Bataan .

The only problem i can foresee is the cost .

Anyway here's a youtube i made filming one of my crossings the 2nd is the bridge story on megastructures series .

Hindi yan pwede sa Manila Bay, baka mabangga ng mga barkong dumadaan:eek2:

Hindi yan pwede sa Manila Bay, baka mabangga ng mga barkong dumadaan:eek2:

What was in mind of our architects and engineers who planned a bridge between cavite and bataan in the early 90's was a suspension-cable bridge, a lot higher compared to a causeway bridge like that in the photo, so to accomodate all the ships that come in and out to manila bay, including an aircraft carrier from US (during US-RP friendship visits). Suspension-cable bridge is similar to San Francisco Golden Bridge and those other modern ones like in Cebu.

Kung iikot sa Laguna de Bay, maybe it would pass through Laguna and Rizal or even as far as Quezon to Central Luzon. For a shorter route, they could try connecting Cavite and Bataan. That way, we do not have to circle the land around Manila Bay to go to Bataan and Zambales from Southern Luzon. This will also shorten the distance going to Pangasinan.


It was already planned before during the early 90's. The only issue is how to fund it, and who will initiate it.

C6 is now getting a layer of asphalt from bitcutan up-to it's eastern end in napindan channel. The road work is bad, seriously bad...mukhang nira-rush nila :nuts: ! While the floodgates are now fully operational..

Which reminds me, here's a couple of pictures of C6 road that i took a few months back (kaya may kotse dahil may isang event :nuts:) :

a lot higher compared to a causeway bridge like that in the photo

http://www.coe.uncc.edu/~jdbowen/1202/2004/fall/oresund_bridge_photo.jpg

It's not exactly a "causeway" don't let the picture fool you it's actually a gigantic bridge , the Oresund straight is also a very busy shipping lane as the only entry point into the Baltic sea , the bridge was designed with large ships ability to pass in mind , some of the largest cruise ships are built in Finland and those are easily taller and heavier than any super carrier yet they would be able to pass under the bridge , in any case the bridges dimensions can be adjusted to cover those concerns .

The design was chosen exactly because it is better suited to strong winds ( kindof pertinent given Manila's typhoon prone location ) and even earthquakes and most importantly to allow for rail traffic this bridge has a dual railway line below the 4 lane + shoulders on top of it .

For a span of the size and cost that would be required i can't envison a bridge spanning Manila bay without a railway line .

Im not particularly concerned about shipping as a Manila bay version could easily have multiple main spans and a submerged tunnel segment as this bridge has , allowing for an unobstructed path for those concerned of passing under the bridge .

On both approaches to the 3 cable-stayed sections, the girder is supported every 140 m (459 ft) by concrete piers. The 2 pairs of free-standing cable supporting towers are 204 m (669 ft) high allowing shipping 57 m (187 ft) of head room under the main span.

The 490 m (1,608 ft) cable-stayed main span is the longest of the type in the world. A girder and cable-stayed design was chosen to provide the rigidity necessary to carry heavy railway traffic.

Japan's Akashi Kaikyo bridge

Manila bay is simply too wide for a single span suspension bridge , the distance between Ternate coastline to Caballo island is almost 10 kilometer the current longest suspension span is that of Kobe , Japan's Akashi Kaikyo bridge which measures just under 2 kilometers , so a suspension bridge would have to be 5 times the size of the current longest .

Red : Bridge / Highway ( or tunnel )
Green : Reclaimed land ( Manila bay palm ? )
White : Tunnel

It would probably cost a few billion$ 6-16 , obviously the government should initiate it and funded through loans paid back over 3+ decades through tolls and by a railway line which would also pay for passage .

The actual bridge would only have to go up to Caballo Island or alternatively a tunnel similar in length to that of Tokyo bay ( better for typhoons ) , from there you could have a prefabricated tube tunnel to Corregidor or reclaim land for a surface road and then a second bridge or tunnel to Mariveles Bataan with exits on Corregidor and Caballo islands along with railway stations .

This would present another means of funding it through Corregidor/Caballo tourism entrance fee's , obviously they would also have to improve the site ( along with a rehabilitation of the fort drum battleship island ) and add other amenities for other commercial activities like convention centers and concert venues to attract extra traffic , and perhaps through some high end multi million $ condo sales a la "Dubai palm" lol etc .

Another viable means would be to add some sort of under water turbine or wind turbine on the bridge or under the deck of the bridge or both , for power generation which can then be sold on to the national power grid market .

But yeah overall such a project probably wouldn't be viable for a decade or two as there is still alot of other issues to be solved , the bridge would probably be for the day the country or Luzon reaches the same level of development as Korea or Japan and theyve runned out of infra projects to invest on .

Anyway for further reading Tokyo Bay aqua line :

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tokyo_Bay_Aqua-Line

With an overall length of 14 km, it includes a 4.4 km bridge and 9.6 km tunnel underneath the bay—the longest underwater tunnel for cars in the world.

The road opened on December 18, 1997 after 31 years of construction at a cost of 1.44 trillion yen (11.2 billion USD at the time of opening).

The old articles lie!! 4 laned highway my foot, just look how narrow the road really is!

Lol it doesn't even look like a highway at all :lol: , but i guess judging from the photo's counting the vehicles and the spaces in between that it is wide enough for a 4 lane highway once completed .

Ang gobyerno natin ay talagang tutulog-tulog. Sobrang kupad kung kumilos. Di ko maintindihan kung ano pa ba hinihintay nila para ayusin ang 'dirt road' na ito. Wala na namang iskwaters, wala na rin sigurong ibang hadlang di ba? Kahit man lang ang part na ito muna ang maging operational para konting ginhawa sa mga motorista. Ang mahalaga kasi nasisimulan na. Kahit kailan talaga di nagpapahalaga ang gobyerno sa ORAS! National Government WAKE UP!!!

They are actually asphalting it as we speak... But, the work is DOWNRIGHT SLOW!!! and super substandard! Hinde pa nga tapos, un kalsada ay hinde na pantay pantay !:bash:

Oo nga pala, the seawall of C-6 is pointless because C-6 on the Napindan Channel is wide open because instead of a flood gate, they built a frickin' bridge instead! and after you cross the bridge, dun na naputol ang C-6 dahil puro squatters at mga bahay na pag baba mo ng C-6 road. :bash:

Why can't they build C6 like what they did to SCTEX?

Short and simple: Kinurakot ng DPWH as usual ang budget. Tapos, pag ginawa nila yan ala SCTEX, super dami na bahay ang tatamaan pag dating sa rizal, taytay at cainta..

Village outside C-6 road dike doomed

Bay Breeze Executive Village opened long before the C-6 road dike project in Taguig City began, which explains why it cannot be protected against the rising waters of Laguna de Bay.

Director Baltazar Melgar of the Metro Manila Development Authority is pessimistic about the future of the place despite the infrastructure, going by the findings of the flood control management office which he heads.

“The subdivision is located outside the road dike. There is no other way to protect [it] from floods,” he told Standard Today.

According to Melgar, Bay Breeze also posed the added burden of rescue during emergencies because the aiders would be operating outside the C-6’s protective barrier.

Efren Navarroza, a mechanical engineer, moved in to the 87- hectare residential zone about a decade ago.

He said the Department of Public Works and Highways had consulted Bay Breeze homeowners about the dike and came up with several options which led to the opening of another access gate.

“Another measure involved realigning the C-5 to include Bay Breeze,” Navarroza said, noting that the modification was estimated at another P2-billion outlay. He would not say if the government would still reconsider giving the subdivision a new lease in life.

He said talks were loose about the village’s beginnings before Sta. Lucia Realty bought it from the first developer.

“Some said the place was reserved by First Lady Imelda Romualdez Marcos for the ministers in the Cabinet,” Navarroza told Standard Today, adding that rumors were dime a dozen about the place which was ideal for a resort type of living.

Melgar eyes more pump stations and a polder dike to encircle the subdivision.

“But the government cannot allocate public funds for such flood control structures in a private village,” he said, suggesting that residents should file a complaint before the Housing and Land Use Regulatory Board.

Sidewalk Clearing Operations Group chief Robert Esquivel said the government must file a civil suit against the developer to seek clarification whether the property location is a public land or a private ownership.

“The lakeshore is a protected area of the government, but within the place are private homes of titled lots. Does it mean residents in the area are holding on to fake land titles?” he asked. “Homeowners must also sue their developer for spurious land titles.”

Barangay secretaries Daecelle Reyes, Antonio Dionisio and Vina Lusares of San Miguel, Wawa and Hagonoy, respectively, said Bay Breeze is still submerged in floodwaters two meters higher than the lake’s 12.6-meter normal water level.

Dionisio reckons about 150 to 200 residential units at Bay Breeze in Wawa alone.

Citing Laguna Lake Development Authority’s assessment, MMDA Chairman Bayani Fernando said water elevation at the lake continues to rise by 0.67 meters per month, and flooding is expected to be around until January next year.

He said the agency’s four major pumping stations at the Napindan Channel in Pasig City and Taguig-—Napindan, Tapayan, Wawa and Hagonoy—were barely enough to bail out water to a lake that brims over during a heavy downpour. Leo A. Estonilo and Rio N. Araja

Smoother traffic seen with C-6 completion next month
By RAYMUND F. ANTONIO
November 6, 2009, 7:58pm
http://www.mb.com.ph/articles/228308/smoother-traffic-seen-with-c6-completion-next-month

Traveling to and from Alabang, Muntinlupa will be hassle-free next month as the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) is expected to finish the construction of the seven-kilometer Circumferential 6 (C-6) Road in Taguig City by yearend.

In an inspection late Thursday afternoon, DPWH director Edilberto Tayao, who is in charge of Metro Manila operations, said four kilometers of C-6 have already been completed and only 40 percent of the road has to be asphalted.

“Just give us two weeks of good weather and we would be able to complete the remaining 40 percent of the works,” Tayao said in an interview.

He said recent weather disturbances Ondoy, Pepeng, and Santi hampered the construction of the C-6 road project worth P120 million during the past two months, but he assured that the project will be competed by yearend.

At present, the road has only two lanes, but the DPWH is looking at expanding it to six lanes to accommodate the expected influx of motorists who will make use of the major thoroughfare in December.

“This is only the first phase of the C6 Road project. Motorists heading south of Manila particularly Alabang, Muntinlupa and Cavite could just pass through M.L. Quezon Street in Taguig and cross the C-6 Road to get to their destination,” he said.

Traveling, according to him, will soon be totally a breeze once they are finished with the five-kilometer Phase 2 of the project, which covers the stretch between Napindan Bridge to Taytay municipality in Rizal province.

“The construction of Phase 2 of the road project would be included in next year’s budget. Once this is completed, motorists coming from the south or Taguig can just use the C-6 Road to reach Rizal province,” Tayao said.

During the same occasion, officials of DPWH also inspected the cleanup of the Napindan River along the boundary of Taguig City and Taytay, Rizal.

“The efficiency in the flow of the water along Napindan River was only 50 percent, but after all the obstructions have been removed the flow of water improved to 80 percent,” Tayao said.

However, about 70 families, who are illegal settlers, have not yet been evicted along the stretch of the river in Taytay municipality due to lack of relocation sites for them. Their makeshift houses make up the 20 percent of the remaining illegal structures in the area.

Yeah, give us a candy and we'll be extremely happy. That's not C6. That's a two lane road in Taguig.

i found this website with some maps and pictures of c6 road::banana:

Is as of january 2009 but the road is not even near the quality of an expressway:ohno:

"Smoother traffic seen with C-6 'Dirt Road' completion next month"

That should be appropriate title. C'mon DPWH, is this really what our taxes deserve?:bash:

^^ Tatakbo pa si Ebdane nan sa 2010 ha...tsk

tapos na to..? bakit walang mga press release...

Wow! What a surprise....

paano naging tapos yan?

C6...completed next month??....What a load of bollocks.....Pagdating mo ng Napindan channel, biglang naputol ang C6... Pagdating mo sa dulo, bahala ka na kung saan ka mapadpad dahil puro malilit na kalsada ang kakaharapin mo. Tapos un kalidad ng kalsada ay sobrang low quality at baku-bako na agad.

Ang alam ko wala pang pondo para gawing isang expressway ang c6 road. Ginawan na lang muna ng paraan para itoy magamit na at mapangalagaan ang right of way. So bale Phase 1 is 7 kilometer plus Phase 2 is 5 kilometers. Mayroon nang 12 kilometers.

C6 Expressway is still looking for a funding...

P20-b dike to ring Laguna de Bay (http://www.manilastandardtoday.com/insideMetro.htm?f=2009/november/24/metro1.isx&d=/2009/november/24)

The Public Works Department has mapped out the route of a P20-billion ring dike around Laguna de Bay to tackle flooding in the eastern and southern part of Metro Manila and adjoining provinces.

Director Edilberto Tayao, of the Public Works Department-National Capital Region, said the 89.3-kilometer embankment would dovetail into the 7-km dike section of the Circumferential 6 road in Taguig City, which was also designed to serve as an alternate route to ease the traffic gridlock in the metropolis.

“President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo already knew about this project [which] is in the planning stage,” he told Standard Today.

As aligned, the 10-meter wide, two-lane and 15-meter elevation dike will link up the cities of Pasig, Parañaque, Muntinlupa, Taguig along with Pateros and Tanay with the larger segment in the Rizal and Laguna provinces.

Tayao said the dike was tossed by Public Works Secretary Victor Domingo to agency officials and regional directors in updating their flood control master plan for Metro Manila following the deadly inundation triggered by storm Ondoy among other cyclones.

Undersecretary Romeo Momo, in-charge for Luzon operations, said the infrastructure would be welcome to the business and travel sectors.

“Surely, it will also decongest the traffic in Metro Manila because motorists coming from Rizal going toward, let’s say Las Piñas City... There is no need to pass Antipolo or inner. They will just connect on the ring dike,” said Momo.

“It will connect [localities] within the lake region at the same time it will reclaim a lot of lands.”

He said project documents would be forwarded to the National Economic and Development Authority for review and evaluation.

“We will spend time for this project and it cannot be done in one or two, or three years. This is almost 100 kilometers and you just imagine elevation 15, that’s a high dike,” Momo told Standard Today.

When asked where the P20- billion budget would come from, he said the project was amply covered.

“We have many avenues for funding and we can include this in our foreign-funded projects by Jica [Japan International Cooperation Agency] and World Bank.”

Momo said the dike route was based on the flooding history of lakeshore localities.

“The priority will be based on the areas where it is usually submerged the most during the rainy days.” he said.

The September flooding has enlarged the 90,000-square kilometer lake to almost 100,000 square kilometers, with a sprawl reaching as far as Mabuhay City Subdivision in Barangay Mamatid, Cabuyao, Laguna, which had knee-deep waters after only a few days of continuous rain.

The normal water level at the Laguna Lake is 10.5 meters, but on Nov. 5, the level notched 13.7 meters or 3.2 meters above the threshold.

^^How LONG will then we have to WAIT for this to become reality? Don't expect too much on this.:ohno:

it feels like at least 10 years to EVEN START IT. :ohno:

any one have an update on this project???

Kahit yung stage 1 naman sana masimulan na Daang Hari to SLEX connection..... demonyo na ang trapik sa aguinaldo highway at disaster sa Bacoor, Dasma at Imus + GMA pa.................. kung maka connect lang ang Molino to SLEX Diyos ko po laking ginhawa neto not to mention matutuwa ang mga mayayaman ng Ayala alabang dahil di na kami siksikan sa Filinvest at Commerce Avenue:bash::bash::bash::bash::bash::bash:

Sumulat nako sa DTI at NDC at DPWH wala deadma cancelled na kaya eto?

Kumusta na kaya ito?
Mukhang tulog ha.

^^ haha dirt road pa rin ata itong C6:lol:

Kumusta na kaya ito?
Mukhang tulog ha.

No! Actually hindi pa ito natutulog, sa tingin ko wala ng pag-asa ang C-6 road.:ohno:

^^ haha dirt road pa rin ata itong C6:lol:

Actually, Operational na un mga floodgates at un kalsada ay fully asphalted na. :cheers:

Ayun naman pala eh. May updates, pero hindi napapansin ang thread ng mahigit isang buwan.

All of you in this thread, Post naman kau ng Pix...

pano ito matatapos eh nasa C-5 pa rin ang pinagkakaguluan sa senate.

bago C-6, C-5 muna.. its just natural progression like susunod C-7 and so on... hehe joke lang po

seriously baka matagal pa 2. wait muna tau another decade kasi baka abutin ng 1 year pa un discussion sa senate. Think of it, mas matagal pa yun talakan nila kesa sa progression ng project na ito

Kelan pa? I hope na matapos na sa senate hearing ang C-5 Scandal para mapag-usapan na ang C-6, wala kasi itong progressive when I see last time.

still no updates about when the C-6 construction will resume. runners and endurance trainers are having a field day there--fresh air, noise pollution-free. :-)

i heared it to Sec Gibo na more boost sa mga ganitong infrastructures including C6.

^^I think Villar will also push this C-6 Road kasi kung titingnan ninyo ang dadaanan ng kalsadang ito, tatama ito sa mga properties nitong si Mr. Sipag at Tiyaga katulad ng Lakefront City Central na nasa Sucat malapit sa Laguna de Bay. Isama ninyo pa diyan ang Portofino na nasa boundary ng Alabang at Cavite. Pati yung mga real-estate properties niya sa Cavite, Las Pinas, at Alabang, e magbebenefit din.:cheers:

Another C-5 controversy kaya ito?:lol:

Pero the bottom line here, kahit sinong manalong presidentiables, dapat talagang i-pursue ito at gawin para may alternate route ang mga motorista going from north to south and vice versa. (Hindi naman talaga kailangang si Villar o si Gibo ang manalo. Kailangan talagang may pagpapapursigi kung sino man ang magiging 15th president ng ating mahal na bansa):)

C6 was discussed by Gibo in one of his interviews :)...

Hi, I recently registered with Skyscraper city although have been reading the threads for a few months already. I noticed nobody has posted updated photos of C6 so I am posting a few which I took on Feb. 9th.

This is taken from the Nagpayong-Pinagbuhatan C6 bridge (start point). They already have a makeshift ferry station (prior to this the last station was at Kalawaan in Pasig).

You will notice that beside the asphalt portion there is still the dirt road portion, which can later on be paved to accommodate 2-3 lanes.

All in all, I biked about 6+km oneway on 2 way asphalt road (2 lanes or a narrow 3 lanes) from Pasig to Bicutan and then back. I noticed a few cars and a fair number of motorcycles. However the major problem seems to be there is nowhere to go after you hit the Don. Eusebio Ave. bridge in Pinagbuhatan...the only thing after that are dirt roads (which I can post later on). There's still a lot of construction to be done if C6 were to benefit majority of the people heading from Bicutan to Taytay.

Bucor workers get payment
By JONATHAN M. HICAP
January 20, 2010, 4:55pm
Employees of the Bureau of Corrections (Bucor) and their families have finally received compensation from the developer of the P1.3-billion Daang Hari C-6 Toll Road Project in exchange for leaving their homes located inside the New Bilibid Prisons in Muntinlupa.

Emerciana Divina, Bucor employee and president of the Samahang Pinagbuklod ng Daang Hari-SLEX Link Road Project Association, told the Manila Bulletin Wednesday that they received the compensation last Monday at the Muntinlupa City hall in the presence of Mayor Aldrin San Pedro and representatives from the project developer and the National Housing Authority.

The second and last batch of families will be paid on Friday.

A total of 75 Bucor employees are the beneficiaries of the compensation package.

The Daang Hari C-6 Toll Road Project is a 4-km road that will connect Muntinlupa and Daang Hari road in Cavite and will traverse inside the NBP Reservation. It is a project of the Alabang-Sto. Tomas Development Inc. (ASDI) and the National Development Co. (NDC).

The project will affect families living in the Magdaong and Makabuhay areas of NBP.

Hi, I recently registered with Skyscraper city although have been reading the threads for a few months already. I noticed nobody has posted updated photos of C6 so I am posting a few which I took on Feb. 9th.

This is taken from the Nagpayong-Pinagbuhatan C6 bridge (start point). They already have a makeshift ferry station (prior to this the last station was at Kalawaan in Pasig).

Nice pics! sa tinagal na ng thread na ito may nag post narin ng pics, thanks to you..


Ito raw ang magiging C-6 ? Pwede na siguro 3 lane for Each bound sa I see in the picture this is not recommended by toll expressway, hindi siya maituturing expressway, This like a simple way only, or ibig ko sabihin na Bypass road lang.:ohno:

meron bang expressway na nasa gitna ng bahay? mukhang eskinital lang... tsk tsk tsk

susme naman.. daming reklamo.. ngayon may nakita na tayong proof na may kalsada gusto naman antin ngayon parang eskinita lang.. okay na yan.. at least my daan.. may alternate route ska na problemahn mga bahay..

This road still has a long long way to go before it reaches its planned state. Let's cross our fingers and let the next government take care of this.

Thanks for posting! Great update!

This road still has a long long way to go before it reaches its planned state. Let's cross our fingers and let the next government take care of this.

Yeah, I agree. Here are more pictures of the Taytay section where C6 might pass (slightly OT)...

For reference the pictures were taken in the vicinity bounded by the yellow polygon on the Google Earth screenshot:

http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e151/NTprime/C6%20Circumferential%20Road%206%20Pasig%20to%20Taguig/IMG_3459.jpg

Facing south. Notice on the left the houses which were swept away by Ondoy (they can still be seen on the Google Earth screenshot)

and they shouldn't blame the government for not warning them...

http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e151/NTprime/C6%20Circumferential%20Road%206%20Pasig%20to%20Taguig/IMG_3465.jpg

Now, logically because of the right-of-way issues posed by the many houses in the Taytay side of the riverbank near the lake, C6 can take this route bounded by the polygon although it is circuitous and not ideal for an expressway.

As of present, there is no convenient exit point from C6 Bridge towards Pasig so it's still impractical to run the whole asphalt stretch (about 7km from Bicutan).

^^:)very nice update @ ntprime. THANKS!!!

Another (supposedly) high-impact road project 'bowed down' to inconsiderate IS and/or private landowners. :bash:This should be straight and not this type. This will definitely be a choke point in the future.

OT:This reminds me of C5-B.Serrano curve.:nuts:

you are absolutely right there. zooming out the satellite picture, the big area of squatter colony will jeopardize the project. hopefully magawan ng paraan ng gubyerno ang paglinis ng ROW para sa daan na yan. or baka naman hanggang dyaan na lang ang c6 na yan. any idea kung hanggang saan ang katuloy ng c6 kung meron man?

So this is the terminus point of the C6 project from Taguig. I've always wondered what the hell DPWH is constructing there.

The problem here is the vast amount of IS, Tricycles and Jeepneys in this area.

SO the C6 is passable already in some sections? And how come its called an expressway? Looks more like a bypass road to me. And are there plans to remove all the IS there? Baka pagpiyestahan ng mga epal ang mga sasakyan sa pagbabato pag natapos na to in I don't know when.

Thanks for the welcome. C6 is passable for the 7 km. stretch I mentioned earlier. Definitely not yet what is expected of an expressway. There are few informal settlers right beside the actual asphalted road. Of course, C6 cuts through the access road going into Bay Breeze as seen here:
http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e151/NTprime/C6%20Circumferential%20Road%206%20Pasig%20to%20Taguig/IMG_3496.jpg

Just outside Bay Breeze are some construction equipment (mostly backhoes and payloaders) with the logo of BNC (wonder which contractor this is).

^^ we will need another ONDOY to get rid of those Illegal Settlers :lol:

We need a typhoon that's 4x more powerful than ONDOY. Pwede na un sing lakas ni Hurricane andrew at katrina in one sa america :cheers:

I think hanggang Taguig lamang itong esquinitang ginagawa. Wala ng lulusutan.

Bakit kasi di magawan ng paraan pa-alisin ang san-damakmak na IS jan..

Kelangan paba ng kalamidad pra umalis sila jan?

No way hanggat may lupa dun sila titira...:bash:

Thats why we all wish that a US type hurricane (instead of our lame typhoons) hit metro manila. Para limas silang lahat.

Thanks for the welcome. C6 is passable for the 7 km. stretch I mentioned earlier. Definitely not yet what is expected of an expressway.

Welcome too NTprime! :)
I think C6 will not open as an expressway during the next administration, and probably even during the next next administration, given the low traffic. What is more feasible is for it to open as a public highway then if high traffic later on will warrant it, for the government to pursue a private sector participation scheme like a tollway concession. :cheers1:

:2cents:

wag naman ganun - human beings yan even if we despise IS, dapat tulungan sila ng gobyerno at improve implementation ng batas....... dami natin batas laban sa squating at relocation................... madami problema ang bansa nato kahit madaling solution ang national calamity masaklap namang i wish yon sa kapwa natin

^^ Alam niyo hindi sila basta basta pwede alisin yang mga IS dyan, Mga botante din yang mga iyan at 100% yan na may nag aalagang pulitiko dyan.

Hmmmmmm! that's great idea, kung nag-wish siya ng ganon, baka walang matira sa Row ng C-6:ohno:

C6 is gonna cut travel time from the South to the East, no need to pass SLEX, C5, then Ortigas Ext which is super congested. It will also connect to Marcos Highway so it will be easier to go to Marikina and Antipolo from the south.

I suggest it should be made into a scenic highway since some parts of it are gonna be beside the lake.

This should be the next priority after C5, it should create a real estate boom in the east, I guess Villar has properties already well positioned here.

Thats why we all wish that a US type hurricane (instead of our lame typhoons) hit metro manila. Para limas silang lahat.

OT
uhmm, our typhoons are way more intense compared to atlantic hurricanes... the number of Cat 5 typhoons outnumber that of hurricanes... humihina lang talaga pagdating ng Philippines kasi ung mountainous terrain and other factors as well...

tsaka, imo, publicized kasi ung mga hurricanes kaya ang attention tutok talaga, pati CNN may coverage... sa atin kinabukasan kahit hanggang tuhod ang baha tuloy pa rin ang buhay...:D

:cheers:

tsaka walang hurricane na tatama EVER sa Pilipinas, kasi sa Atlantic Ocean lang meron nun. Typhoons ang tropical cyclones sa Pacific

That's right, after c-5 complition, the next priority projet is c6, I think that manny villar is already to reserve this properties in c-6 row....

our typhoons are lame?? LOL this is funny!

pati ba nman sa bagyo e na insecure ka parin sa Amerika? ANG TAWAG JAN INFERIOR MENTALITY... aheheh

FYI- actually mas destructive nga si ONdoy kesa kay Katrina e.. Mas malakas ang dala niang ulan. kalahati lang kung ikukumpara.
Ondoy - in 24 hours 17.9 inches of rain fell
Katrina - rainfall of over 8 inches

sino ngayon ang mas malaki ang tite? Kano o Pinoy? LOL

Malaki ang titi ng pinoy sa pagiging MAYABANG. Purket madami lang ang rainfall ni ondoy, pinagmayabang na. Kahit ano sabihin mo, di hamak na mas matindi naman ang damage ni Katrina.

Pagtumama ang ganung kalakas na bagyo sa atin, sure ball na limas ang squatters sa buong stretch ng floodway :nuts:

Hayaan mo, talagang damay kami dito dahil nasa labas ng seawall ng C-6 ang baybreeze.

At ngayon ko lang nalaman na loves nyo din pala ang mga squatters na saksakan ng makasarili.

Typhoon and hurricanes ay parehas lang na bagyo. Mas concentrated lang ang power ng typhoon di tulad ng hurricane na ang laki ng area damage :nuts:

wala cheap tlga ang pinas..
kahit sa bagyo cheap pa din... sequats lang ang kayang tangayin.. lol
buti pa ang US pati ang bagyo "WORLD CLASS!"


but seriously.. talagang seryoso ka sa wish mo na bumagyo ng ganung kalakas sa Manila para lang matangay ang mga IS?
babalik din un kahit anong gawin mo.. unless malunod silang lahat at mamatay..

and that picture above.. i think they demolished the houses already kaya ganyan itsura nian.. ugaling kano pa na konting damage e hinde uso ang repair repair.. kailangan palitan completely.. since they don't care coz they have insurance.

Mahal pa kasi mag parepair kaysa sa magtayo ng bago.

Ok... tama na OT niyo. No sense in talking about typhoons and its bad karma to wish bad things to happen to people (even squatters). Let's just go back to the C6 discussion. Whatever happened to that other proposal (LABART yata yun?) that should be related to C6? I think that project also had proposed a viaduct surrounding the bay and connecting to C6 via Taguig.

^^Yep

Kitang kita yung dapat na straight line nag swerve ng malupit towards the right side. Gawa lang ng mga IS.

Sang area yan?

^^ Near the Metro Manila-Rizal Border.it is just outside metro manila's border, so it is on western Rizal.

^^ Thanks.

Dapat si BF gumawa nitong C6 para walis lahat ng IS jan. Grabe eh.

One of the reasons why C6 is not thoroughly utilized is that there are no exit points/intersections where traffic will connect to any major thoroughfare. The most I can think of is the intersection of Bay Breeze which then continues on to Pateros from Taguig (seen in the lower middle half of the picture above).

Until the government will continue C6 beyond Taytay (seen above), this won't be of much use to most motorists except those from Taguig and Pinagbuhatan, Pasig:ohno:

unlike most of you guys here, i am actually familiar with the place and I know some people living in the area. And what i know is that the settlers in the area are not squatters. Those living in those areas actually own the lot where their houses are standing on. The more appropriate term would be depressed area and not squatters. Notice on the pictures how the houses are aligned and legitimate streets/roads can be seen.

^^ i gotta agree with that. the area looks more orderly than a typical squatter area. No wonder C6 was forced to change its course there :bash:

Thanks for clearing that up. But i'm pretty sure na squatters sila na binigyan lang ng titolo..Halos ganito ang nanyari dito sa Brgy. Napico sa dulo ng lifehomes. Squatters sila nung 1977 at nung tumagal ay naging legitimate land owners na sila. Ganyan din ang nanyari sa floodway at ang pinagkaiba lang ay un sa floodway ay talagang ilegal.

That place is what you call the "Lupang Arenda". It used to be a dumpsite, then during the time of Ramos through the NHA, had it occupied by squatters who were relocated from the Pasig River. They don't actually own the land but only have rights to it. It has now become a haven for criminals and even some abu sayaff members were caught here. This is the place where it took months for the Ondoy floodwaters to recede.

Recently GMA revoked the PD that gave the rights to this land due to the Ondoy disaster and they now must be relocated, this is gonna be a big headache since the process takes a long time. Hopefully they could find a suitable relocation site and evict all these people. Once the C-6 gets finished there's gonna be a boom in lakeside real estate, which is probably why the LLDA is supporting the Taguig airport project so the bayside squatters who are a major source of organic effluent can finally be evicted.

ABA opposes eviction of 60,000 families in Taytay, Rizal
(The Philippine Star)

MANILA, Philippines - The party-list group ABA, headed by Rep. Leonardo Montemayor, urged President Arroyo to suspend the implementation of Executive Order 854, which revoked Presidential Proclamation 704.

According to Montemayor, PP 704 - issued by former President Fidel Ramos - transferred some 80 hectares of public land in Sitio Tapayan, Barangay Sta. Ana of Taytay, Rizal to the National Housing Authority for distribution to informal settlers in the Pasig River and in Taytay under the government’s socialized housing program. The 80 hectares are part of the 171-hectare area in Taytay popularly known as Lupang Arenda.

Some 60,000 families currently residing in the proclaimed socialized housing area now face eviction due to EO 854, Montemayor said.

The ABA representative disclosed that, based on his initial inquiries and actual visit to Lupang Arenda, the report and so-called “complete staff work” that served as the basis of EO 854 were done hurriedly by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR).

“No consultations with local government officials, other national government agencies, and concerned residents and their organizations were undertaken by DENR on the community, provincial, regional and/or national levels,” Montemayor lamented.

He also disputed the DENR’s claim that, during tropical storm “Ondoy,” vast areas of Lupang Arenda were washed out and submerged for several weeks.

“The site where many houses were washed out is located in Purok 8, which is outside the 80 hectares proclaimed under PP 704. Moreover, the slight flooding experienced in the proclaimed site could have been avoided had the Metro Manila Flood Control/Road Dike Project in the area been completed and the facilities properly maintained and operated during Ondoy,” Montemayor added.

He pointed out that Purok 8 has now been totally cleared of structures, since they impede the flow of floodwaters that drain into Laguna Lake from Taytay and nearby towns and cities.

The ABA head expressed strong support for the position of the Arenda Urban Poor Federation, Inc., Mayor George Gacula, Vice Mayor Janet de Leon-Mercado and the Sangguniang Bayan of Taytay, calling for the suspension or revocation of EO 854 pending further review and conduct of a comprehensive technical, environmental and legal study on the matter.

^^ that party list guy needs to shut up, IMO. For me, They should be relocated (again :nuts:) so they won't get harmed incase Laguna De Bay overflows again and so it can be dug out to improve the flow of laguna de bay going to Napindan Channel.

^^^ matatagalan na naman sigurado bago ma relocate yang mga yan

sasapit na kasi ang eleksyon kaya naman kailangan na kailangan sila ng mga pulitiko sa area na iyan (mga botante din sila 60k na pamilya may lakas yan na magpanalo ng isang party list :ohno: )

sana lang matapos na iyan para mabawasan na ang mga dambuhalang truck sa naghihingalong ortigas ave. extension :ohno: sobrang traffic lagi, kaasar

Politicians are usually two faced, they grandstand for PR purposes that they are against relocation but they are also looking for alternative sites for these people. Lupang Arenda will eventually become prime land once the Taguig airport project gets built, but in the meantime of course these politicians grandstand in order to get votes.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but is owning a land just a privilege and not a right? Is there any constitutional provision that states so?

Malaböng magka airport sa Taguig simply because we have NAIA with several terminals , C6 nga hirap magawa airport pa kaya

Malaböng magka airport sa Taguig simply because we have NAIA with several terminals , C6 nga hirap magawa airport pa kaya
While I would prefer to think that an airport in Taguig would benefit Metro Manilans more, I believe it won't happen in the next ten or so years, due to the following:

1. The effort to reclaim thousands of hectares from Laguna de Bay is an engineering feat that would probably rival the Palm Deira in Dubai. I wonder where Taguig City will get the money to finance something like this. Also, what are the guarantees the new airport will not sink slowly like Suvarnabhumi or Kansai?

2. In support of No. 1, even the reclamation projects in Manila Bay were done over a generation, going back to the time of former president Marcos. I think it is easier to flatten Talim Island and build from there (a la Chek Lap Kok) compared to reclaiming land from Laguna de Bay. Or expand Sangley Point in Cavite.

3. The masterplan was to wait for NAIA to reach capacity (well, it is over capacity already), and then move the international gateway to Clark/DMIA (which is slowly becoming a reality).

There are other reasons but I don't want to go OT on the C6 thread. In any case, I think the government should focus on getting C6 started in earnest so that people coming from the south and going eastwards/northwards and vice versa enjoy the benefits of avoiding traffic prone EDSA and C5.

^^ OT: Ayusin muna ang other side of C5 before of even thinking of building an airport there.

guys, just a quick question. Maybe those who live in the area could help me out. I've been told that there are lots for sale in this area. Im not so sure as to the exact location of the lot but I was told its near Bay Breeze Subdivision. I just want to know what the flood situation is in this area. We're renting right now in Pasig and went through hell during the Ondoy Storm that why I'm a little bit traumatic about flooding. Any other info if its worth buying the lot would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I wouldn't go there if I were you. I have a friend who lives there and they were swimming like crazy during Ondoy. Here's a recent article regarding Bay Breeze and Laguna de Bay:

http://www.manilastandardtoday.com/insideMetro.htm?f=2009/october/27/metro1.isx&d=2009/october/27

Village outside C-6 road dike doomed

Bay Breeze Executive Village opened long before the C-6 road dike project in Taguig City began, which explains why it cannot be protected against the rising waters of Laguna de Bay.

Director Baltazar Melgar of the Metro Manila Development Authority is pessimistic about the future of the place despite the infrastructure, going by the findings of the flood control management office which he heads.

“The subdivision is located outside the road dike. There is no other way to protect [it] from floods,” he told Standard Today.

According to Melgar, Bay Breeze also posed the added burden of rescue during emergencies because the aiders would be operating outside the C-6’s protective barrier.

Efren Navarroza, a mechanical engineer, moved in to the 87- hectare residential zone about a decade ago.

He said the Department of Public Works and Highways had consulted Bay Breeze homeowners about the dike and came up with several options which led to the opening of another access gate.

“Another measure involved realigning the C-5 to include Bay Breeze,” Navarroza said, noting that the modification was estimated at another P2-billion outlay. He would not say if the government would still reconsider giving the subdivision a new lease in life.

He said talks were loose about the village’s beginnings before Sta. Lucia Realty bought it from the first developer.

“Some said the place was reserved by First Lady Imelda Romualdez Marcos for the ministers in the Cabinet,” Navarroza told Standard Today, adding that rumors were dime a dozen about the place which was ideal for a resort type of living.

Melgar eyes more pump stations and a polder dike to encircle the subdivision.

“But the government cannot allocate public funds for such flood control structures in a private village,” he said, suggesting that residents should file a complaint before the Housing and Land Use Regulatory Board.

Sidewalk Clearing Operations Group chief Robert Esquivel said the government must file a civil suit against the developer to seek clarification whether the property location is a public land or a private ownership.

“The lakeshore is a protected area of the government, but within the place are private homes of titled lots. Does it mean residents in the area are holding on to fake land titles?” he asked. “Homeowners must also sue their developer for spurious land titles.”

Barangay secretaries Daecelle Reyes, Antonio Dionisio and Vina Lusares of San Miguel, Wawa and Hagonoy, respectively, said Bay Breeze is still submerged in floodwaters two meters higher than the lake’s 12.6-meter normal water level.

Dionisio reckons about 150 to 200 residential units at Bay Breeze in Wawa alone.

Citing Laguna Lake Development Authority’s assessment, MMDA Chairman Bayani Fernando said water elevation at the lake continues to rise by 0.67 meters per month, and flooding is expected to be around until January next year.

He said the agency’s four major pumping stations at the Napindan Channel in Pasig City and Taguig-—Napindan, Tapayan, Wawa and Hagonoy—were barely enough to bail out water to a lake that brims over during a heavy downpour. Leo A. Estonilo and Rio N. Araja

However, should you decide to call Bay Breeze your future home, here's how you should plan your house:

Palafox pushes marina houses for lake shore

Urban planner Felino Palafox Jr. will not allow Laguna Lake to claim Bay Breeze Executive Village in Taguig City, urging residents instead to live with nature instead of fighting it.

The 87-hectare property has remained submerged waist-deep since rains due to storm Ondoy when lake authorities monitored the water level at 13.82 meters against the average 11.8 meters to 12.6 meters from July to September.

“Dwellers must restructure their houses higher than the normal water elevation,” he told Standard Today, adding that the subdivision had to go vertical.

“They should be built higher than the 100-year flood history [from] 1909 and 1972 reportedly higher than the 2009 floods. Structures there must be built on stilts, just like the Badjaos or the boathouses in Seattle,” he said, referring to the traditional village of native Mindanao seafarers and an American marina-style enclave.

The C-6 road dike, a main component of the anti-flood system to keep Metro Manila from sinking during the wet season, was built, unfortunately leaving out the subdivision to surges in the lake.

Taguig Mayor Freddie Tinga said he had lobbied to have the structure realigned only to find the section in his locality fasttracked, the stretch extending to the Napindan bridge at the boundary of Pasig City in Nagpayong, Pinagbuhatan.

In his lineup of projects, Palafox said he has work commissioned in Dubai and in Roxas City applying water-adapted designs.

“No single-detached houses, but medium-rise buildings... with elevated walkways and dikes. People live upstairs, and not downstairs,” he said, describing elements of his ongoing projects.

Palafox would not discount berths for motor boats to cruise water lanes.

But he said Bay Breeze residents may yet set foot on dry ground again and drive through its streets.

According to Palafox, a road dike higher than the lake’s 12.5 meters water elevation must be built along with the stalled spillway in Parañaque to release excess water to Manila Bay.

The natural drainage is the Pasig River snaking downtown with many curves that slowdown flow on top of siltation which further lessens the waterways carrying capacity.

Palafox said he was in Singapore when Press Secretary Cerge Remonde and Secretary to the Cabinet Silvestre Bello III set up a meeting with President Arroyo on reviving the counterpart of the Manggahan floodway.

“Under the 1977 World Bank-funded study entitled the Metro Manila Transport, Land Use and Development Planning Project, vertical urbanism, construction of dikes and spillways were recommended in flood-prone areas, such as those within Laguna Lake, to no avail,” he noted.

“One of the most important solutions to Bay Breeze is the implementation of the Parañaque spillway. Bay Breeze should have not been inundated if only the spillway was built,” he said.

Palafox said the Manggahan weir should have been complementary to the Parañaque floodway but the Metro Manila Commission, now the Metro Manila Development Authority, put it in the back burner “for still no apparent reason.” Leo A. Estonilo and Rio N. Araja

thanks bro. So much for that lot. I was already designing the house that i would build in my mind with the house having picturesque views of laguna de bay and a balcony where i could just enjoy the sunset with a cup of joe in hand. Hahahaha! Oh well, wouldnt risk that if my family would experience what we went through during the ondoy storm.

May bahay kami dun at kahit laking perwisyo ang ginawa ni ondoy. Gusto ko parin bumalik sa baybreeze kasi sobrang relaxing at serene ng place. A nice break from all the urban hassle.

...Malamok nga lang pag gabi :nuts:


Now to C6:
Taguig Goverment just installed streetlights throughout the whole stretch of C6. Hinde pa sya gumagana though..

Citra revives C-6 project (http://www.manilastandardtoday.com/insideBusiness.htm?f=2010/may/10/business1.isx&d=2010/may/10)
by Jeremiah F. de Guzman

Skyway operator Citra Metro Manila Tollways Corp. has renewed its interest to build the ambitious C-6 road project costing an estimated $1 billion.

Chito Borromeo, president of Skyway O and M Corp., a unit of Citra, said the Indonesian company planned to revive the C-6 road project that was deferred due to the financial crisis.

“[C-6] right now is under discussion,” Borromeo said, adding that Citra was open to venturing with other investors to carry out the road project and take a majority control in it.

The planned 50-kilometer C-6 will be constructed from the North Luzon Expressway toll gate in Marilao, Bulacan to Bicutan entrance at the South Luzon Expressway via San Jose del Monte City, Rodriguez (formerly Montalban), San Mateo, Marikina City, Antipolo City, Angono, Taytay, and Taguig.

“It’s going to be quite a large investment [and] requires a large chunk of property,” Borromeo said, adding that the project might have a real estate component to maximize investments.

Borromeo said the firm has not yet estimated the cost of building the project but another official from SomCO said it could be more than $1 billion.

Borromeo said portions of the planned project would require right-of-way on several private properties. “So one has to be more innovative in order to do the project,” Borromeo said.

C-6 was envisioned to be the final and longest of the six semi-circle roads in Metro Manila. The first five circumferential roads (C-1 to C-5), which are linked by 10 radial roads, (R-1 to R-10), and convey traffic from the northern to southern parts of Manila, have already been built.

The C-6 project will be composed of the $600-million Metro Manila Tollway, the 23-km Laguna de Bay Coastal Road and the southern segment of C-6.

C-6 will extend southward along the proposed Laguna de Bay Coastal Road up to Muntinlupa City. It will continue up to the Manila-Cavite Expressway in Cavite province.

If completed, vehicles coming from Bulacan to Laguna or Cavite and vice versa would not have to pass Metro Manila through the highly congested Edsa. This would halve the travel time of those vehicles and ease traffic jams in the metropolis.

Citra, the joint venture between the Citra group of Indonesia and Philippine National Construction Corp., earlier said it was in the lookout for business opportunities in the Philippines to strengthen its presence in the country through the construction and operation of tollway projects.

The Indonesian company currently managing the first phase of the South Metro Manila Tollway that consists of an elevated expressway to Buendia from Bicutan and completing the extension of the first stage.

Metro Pac close to acquiring Skyway firm (http://business.inquirer.net/money/topstories/view/20090406-198232/Metro_Pac_close_to_acquiring_Skyway_firm)

By Daxim Lucas
Philippine Daily Inquirer
First Posted 19:44:00 04/06/2009

MANILA, Philippines--The local infrastructure unit of Hong Kong-based First Pacific Co. Ltd. may soon acquire a majority stake in the company that operates the Skyway elevated toll road in southern Metro Manila.

According to Metro Pacific Tollways Corp. (MPTC) president and CEO Ramoncito Fernandez, the group is in discussion with Citra Metro Manila Tollways Corp. (CMMTC) for possible equity infusion by the Manuel Pangilinan-led group into the latter.

He said discussions with the Indonesian-led firm shifted to high gear with the start of construction of the so-called “Skyway 2” project, which involved the extension of an existing 10-kilometer stretch from Makati City to Bicutan by another seven kilometers to Alabang.

Speaking to reporters, Fernandez said an estimated $192 million would be needed for the second phase of the Skyway project—an amount the Metro Pacific group would help fund should it successfully gain an additional stake in CMMTC.

Currently, Metro Pacific’s stake in CMMTC amounts to 10 percent.

Separately, Pangilinan, who chairs Metro Pacific Investments Corp. (MPIC), parent firm of MPTC, said talks with CMMTC were at an advanced stage and that a deal may be forthcoming.

“It is almost done,” he told reporters, adding that his firm was interested in gaining a majority stake in the Skyway operator.

He said Metro Pacific would help the firm raise funds for the expansion of the Skyway, the development of which was cut short by the effects of the 1997 East Asian financial crisis and the downfall of Indonesian strongman Suharto, whose daughter owned the firm that built the roadway.

Apart from constructing the elevated roadway, Pangilinan said funds would also be devoted to rehabilitating the toll plazas of the Skyway, to give them a uniform design with those of the North Luzon Expressway, which the group also owns and operates.

Funds will also be allocated for the continuing rehabilitation of the existing at-grade section of the Skyway from Magallanes to Alabang.

The entry of the Metro Pacific group into the company will dilute the stake of its Indonesian owners to a minority stake, company officials said.

Officials also said this project would generate an estimated 30,000 jobs over its two-year life span.

For its part, the government is expected to contribute about P200 million, which will come in the form of right-of-way acquisitions in and around the project site.

Skyway 2 is the fourth component of Metro Pacific’s P38.1–billion road construction package designed to decongest major roadways in and around Metro Manila.

Other projects in the pipeline consist of Segment 8.1 from Mindanao Ave. to Valenzuela City; Segments 9 and 10, covering a distance of 8 kilometers from NLEx to MacArthur Highway in Valenzuela and Port Area in Manila; and the NLEx-SLEx Connector Road Expressway from C3 in Caloocan City to Buendia Avenue in Makati.

CMMTC is the joint venture corporation of Indonesia’s P. T. Citra Lamtoro Gung Persada (CLGP) and the Philippine National Construction Corp. (PNCC).

CMMTC’s owners are CLGP, Citra Marga Nusaphala Persada, Bhaskara Dunlajaya, and Matra Sarana Aristama; Avenue Asia Special Situations Funds III; and local firms Strategic Development Corporation, Metro Strategic Infrastructure Holdings, Inc., as well as the PNCC.

The Indonesian company currently managing the first phase of the South Metro Manila Tollway that consists of an elevated expressway to Buendia from Bicutan and completing the extension of the first stage.

I don't really care who builds it, just build it! :banana:

Kailan kaya nila matatapos ang C6 project.

Siguro after 3000 years :nuts:

^^ maaring matapos yan depende sa magiging secretary ng DPWH.. pramis =)

:bash: Sana tapusin na nila yung C-6 project, maraming makikinabang sa project na yan :banana: :cheers:

^^ Any progress in the C-6 project? :ohno: :bash:

^^Hindi pa siguro gagalawin ang C-6 hangga't di matapos ang mga road works sa South..

Naglagay ang taguig government ng light posts along the stretch ng C-6. Kaso, lahat hinde gumagana dahil hinde pa lahat connected :nuts:

Siguro after 3000 years :nuts:

Parang may naalala ako na isang forumer na ganyan din ang pag-reply. Exaggerated. Parang si Arciga_01 ata iyon. Taga-Taguig din siya. Pero na-ban na iyon.:D:D:D

^^Parang kilala ko un :naughty:


Back on topic, i checked C-6 and i saw a few Meralco guys already doing some wiring on the light posts.

Double post, mga kuha ko sa C-6 kanina lang umaga. Konti lang kinunan ko dahil baka maubos gas ng motor ko :lol: :

First try ko sa pagkuha ng panorama:

Pagkatapos nyan, umuwi na ako dahil ayokong lumayo incase mawalan ako ng gas. Wala kasing gas station in sight eh :lol:


:cheers:

^^ i see a lot of potential for this road. There's plenty of space for it to expand. It just needs people who are willing to expand it and money.

sa itsura ng daan mukhang matagalan pang malaparan to. Ang punto siguro dito ay basta madaanan na para makatulong sa decongestion ng major roads natin.

i could just imagine how much good it can bring to my hometown. fresh produce from the south and the north can just use C6 to get to marikina! hope c6 can push through

they should anticipate future traffic...in that case road widening should start at the earliest time...and why do we have to include here the private sector in making it to happen as a busy road ang having a toll gate where is the road tax and other taxes paid by the people of the phils (corrupted :bash:)...the government started this plan so why not invest more and continue to upgrade and widened the road to a 5 lanes on both side...this will help the decongestion in EDSA traffic,,this will be the alternative route...

^^ They should make this a limited access, closed system tollway. :banana: :cheers: :cheers: :banana:

ilang kilometro ba yang c6 @christian123 at nauubusan ka ng gas.... o baka naman de otso ba ride mo...:):)

ilang kilometro ba yang c6 @christian123 at nauubusan ka ng gas.... o baka naman de otso ba ride mo...:):)

Mula Lower bicutan up to Napidan bridge ay around 7.2 kilometers. Atleast according to google earth.

Half tank lang un gas ko nung nag biyahe ako from my house to C-6 tapos ang bilis ng takbo ko kaya lakas kumain ng gas ng scooter ko. :lol:

:lurker: Are there any new plans and development in C-6, That C-6 project will become a big informal settlement area in the future if they don't continue the project based on the original plan, a Limited Access Toll Road. :ancient

^^ Any updates? :?

When the rainy season is over I'll try and bike towards that area again. Will see how the area has progressed since I took some photos half a year ago.

My worry is that the area of IS houses would have mushroomed already (this is near the bridge in Napindan).

Most of the progress I've seen is the 7 or so km. from Bicutan to the Napindan area bridge. That area is relatively flat but would most likely suffer from a sharp rise in the water level of Laguna de Bay (and take Bay Breeze under water with it).

Well, a week ago, while on my flight to singapore, i saw that the road in the area is already added with asphalt overlay. There are clearly some vehicles passing through it. however, it is only 2 lanes wide, one in each diraction.

^Hindi magandang tingnan sa expressway ang masyadong pakurba ang daan, bakit kaya hindi nila dineretso ito.:ohno:

^^ Kasi maraming dadaanang IS, hindi ko nga din maintindihan kung bakit ayaw idiretso, pwede naman ipa-relocate yung mga tatamaan na IS. :badnews:

^IS lang iyan, napaliko pa ang daan, hindi naman pag-aari ng mga IS ang mga Lupa diyan.

DPWH, Korea sign P59-M feasibility study for C-6 construction
Written by Cai U. Ordinario / Reporter

THE government has started the first phase of a plan to construct Circumferential Road 6 (C-6) that would link the North and South expressways and effectively decongest Metro Manila’s major roads, including Edsa, Quirino Highway and C-5.

The Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) signed with the Korea International Cooperation Agency (Koica) on Wednesday a $1.3-million (P58.86-million) feasibility study on the construction of C-6. The results of the study will be available next year. It will include surveys and investigation of the site, traffic and demand analysis, and economic and financial analysis, to be done by Korean experts, Koica said.

Earlier, the Asian Development Bank (ADB) revealed that traffic congestion on major Philippine roads like Edsa costs the country around $2 billion annually or P277 million daily, in lost time of workers. The study also showed that $19 million, or P962 million, annually, is lost in hospitalization expenses and lost productive time due to illness.

Kim Jinoh, the Koica’s resident representative, said the Philippines is one of Korea’s long-standing allies in the region, and his country was very glad to provide assistance.

“This is a gesture of thanksgiving for over six decades of strong and fruitful partnership between the two countries. Rest assured that Koica is committed to further strengthening this partnership, and we look forward to working with DPWH on other initiatives as well,” said Kim.

The Koica increased its grant assistance to the Philippines this year to $15 million from $10 million in 2009. This made the Philippines the second-largest recipient of Korean grant aid, next to Afghanistan.

Deputy Country Director Kim Bomin said this was also part of Korea’s commitment to triple its grant assistance to Asean and raise its official development assistance (ODA) to gross national income ratio to 0.25 percent by 2015.

Apart from the feasibility study for C-6, other projects funded by the Koica in the Philippines include the development of the Lung Center of the Philippines as the National Referral Center for Multidrug Resistant Tuberculosis, modern integrated rice-processing complexes in the four provinces, an early-warning and response system for disaster mitigation in Metro Manila, Kor-Phil Public Health Collaborating Center, and the Kor-Phil Friendship Center.

Other projects are the computerization of the “Forward Estimates System for Budget Allocation of the Philippines,” enhancing the performance of the Philippine livestock industry through an institutionalized genetic-improvement system, feasibility study on the establishment of multi-industry clusters in the Philippines, and updating the Mactan Cebu Airport master plan and feasibility study for the construction of a new passenger terminal.

^^ :banana: That's a good news, but when will it be built or constructed? :badnews:

*repeats*

Siguro after 3000 years :nuts:

Sana matapos yung feasibility study by the end of this administration, tapos hopefully sa next administration gagawin na at may funding na. Anyway, pina bid na ba nila yung feasibility study? Baka mamaya jan paghatian na yan ng mga taga DPWH. :lol:

^^ Wala pa bang FS tong C-6? Or updated yung gagawin?

The article says they will share the findings by next year. OK, granted that happens, what is the next step towards accomplishing the construction of C6 in the Pasig Cainta area? Talks for establishing the ROW? That could take years or more than the term of this administration.:ohno:

sad to say this project will also be like lrt south ext, 20 years in the making, even northrail has stopped

Yes, and then funding for the ROW. It could take years if we rely solely on the government, a PPP arrangement like that of the Skyway would probably speed things up.

Northrail is currently ongoing, we used to do design for them and I have a classmate who currently works there.

yup its ongoing but it seems there are no new updates since the aquino administration started

^^Ang C6 ang walang updates. Hanggang ngayon dirt road pa rin ito. Kahit papaano ang NR umuusad kahit makupad. Kung gusto mo dalawin mo ang railroad thread naroon ang bagong NR updates.

yung one direction Asphalt paved na, from Bicutan to Pasig. Pero bitin pa rin, kailangan pa maituloy, hindi pa sya Expressway Quality, wala pa ngang toll collection and maintenance.

^^ Sana gawin siyang BOT scheme para matuloy na talaga yang project na yan. Sana lang din merong investor na interesado.

Is this passable (open to the public) na?

Ang problema nito ay ang location nito sa Bicutan ay ubod ng sakip at trapik, at sangkaterba ang tricycles.

^^ Sana gawin siyang BOT scheme para matuloy na talaga yang project na yan. Sana lang din merong investor na interesado.

Ang gustong mangyari ni PNoy dito ay PPP (Public-Private Partnerships) kaya malamang maghihintay ito ng pribadong sektor para lang mapaganda ang kaledad ng kalsada.

:ohno: Yes, only the two laane asphalt paved side is oped (for both directions), but the problem is the area going there in the pasig side ay masikip at hindi paved. :ohno:

sino po merong mapa ng c-6? yung detailed sana, salamat

You can backread through this thread or look for C6 under Google Earth/Maps or wikimapia (I prefer the latter).

Most printed maps don't even have C6 indicated, since there are hardly any intersections that are of useful access to people coming from other parts of East Metro Manila other than those from Bay Breeze Subdivision in Taguig. Even the Napindan section of C6 doesn't connect to any major thoroughfare in the easter side of Pasig.

Dapat sana highway din na may fence at bawal ang mga tricycle, may toll na parang SLEX at NLEX. Masmaganda na yan para madiscourage yuong mga tricycles at colorum na jeepneys.

Definitely it will be a highway on the scale of C5 or bigger. Otherwise the private entities will not find any point in putting up funds for this if tricycles and jeepneys will be the main beneficiaries. C6 will decongest vehicular traffic going to eastern Metro Manila as well as Cainta and Antipolo in Rizal province. The way it is right now, vehicles will normally pass through C5 and then turn at Ortigas extension or come from Sumolong/Marcos Highway.

However, from the looks of the potential route, it would be difficult to put fences that will last long term, with all those IS in the vicinity.:bash:

may development pa ba sa project na ito?

^^ Nilalagyan nila ng pavement yung road after napindan bridge (Taytay side). :banana:

^^ Nilalagyan nila ng pavement yung road after napindan bridge (Taytay side). :banana:

Really? The winding road leading past the homes of the IS that were washed away by Ondoy?

I hope they just build C6 straight through that colony whether elevated or at grade in order to connect to Cainta. Going the circuitous route is a waste of resources and time.

^^ Nilalagyan nila ng pavement yung road after napindan bridge (Taytay side). :banana:

Sana naman laparan nila ang ginagawang pavement para di na mamoblema sa widening in the future.

And as of now, the light post that the Taguig City Government erected along the stretch is still not in use. :ohno:

:lol: Yes, parang hindi nga maganda pag winding road, dapat dineretso na lang, I am not really sure where the terminus is. :bash:

aba gumagalaw pala itong pagong na project na ito... how fun!

Hopefully somebody can post some pics of the section after the Napindan Bridge...

Are there lots of earthmoving equipment already in the area? Or is it just asphalt pavers that are working on the sections which used to be dirt road?

:speech: Tapos na ba yung asphalt laying nila? :?

Matagal na, lubak na nga un ibang parts :nuts:

aba gumagalaw pala itong pagong na project na ito... how fun!

^^ baka yung thread ang gumagalaw hindi yung project... :nuts:
