Cebu-Cordova Link Bridge|PHILIPPINES
3
The Cebu–Cordova Link Expressway (CCLEX), also known as the Cebu–Cordova Bridge is a toll bridge expressway under-construction in Metro Cebu, Philippines which will link Cebu City and Cordova.
Design
The bridge, which will span 8 kilometers (5.0 mi), will be designed by Dissing+Weitling Architecture, while the engineering works will be done by local firms DCCD Engineering Corp and COWI. Connecting Cebu City and Cordova, the 27-meter-wide (89 ft) bridge is meant to serve an alternate route serving the Mactan Cebu International Airport, serving at least 40,000 vehicles daily. The 400-meter-long (1,300 ft) main span of the CCLEX will be cable-stayed and will be supported by 145-meter-high (476 ft) twin tower pylons. The design of the pylons was inspired from the historic Magellans's Cross The main span will have a 60 meters (200 ft) navigation clearance, which allow ships to traverse the bridge. Viaduct approach bridges and a causeway will also form part of the CCLEX, as well as toll road facilities on an artificial island. The toll facilities' design are inspired from the eight-rayed sun of the Philippine Flag.
