Cebu 3rd Bridge Project Progress Update as of August 2020

Here’s the progress update of the P30-Billion Cebu 3rd Bridge Project or Cebu-Cordova Link Expressway (CCLEX) as of August 2020.

WHAT IS CCLEX PROJECT?

The P30-billion CCLEX project will have two lanes in each direction that will provide safe, quick, and scenic passage to an estimated 50,000 vehicles daily, easing the traffic in the existing Marcelo Fernan Bridge and the Mandaue-Mactan Bridge.

The Cebu-Cordova Link Expressway (CCLEX) is an 8.5KM toll bridge expressway connecting Cebu City and Cordova set to open in 2021.

AUGUST UPDATE

They have removed the formworks for the portal frame that will support the ramps that will connect the main bridge to the Cebu South Coastal Road (CSCR) at the South Road Properties (SRP). The work, which started on August 15, is the reason why they needed to close the CSCR viaduct to ensure the safety of motorists. They reopened the viaduct by 5 a.m. on August 17.
