Cavitex - Sangley Extension Project

Screen grab from Google Maps
Over the past months I have been noticing reclamation activity along the mangroves area of Cavitex Kawit toll exit. As it took shape of a road running towards Cavite City, it got me more curious. So this is what it says in the DPWH PPP Page:

Cavitex-Sangley Extension

Project Description: 
•The project proposal is a viaduct with an approximate length of 4.63 km. via a reclaimed road which intends to connect the Kawit Interchange of Cavitex to Sangley Point of Cavite City and neighboring provinces (Laguna, Batangas, etc.) including Metro Manila. The project will have the following phases:

Project Phases
Length
(km)
1
Kawit Interchange to Bacoor Bay


·   Road
1.46

·   Bridge
0.16
2
Bacoor Bay to Cavite City Interchange


·   Road
0.20

·   Bridge
1.00
3
Cavite City Interchange


·   Road
1.44

·   Bridge
0.37

News articles only mentions the proposal as of April 2018 and I don't see any construction timeline in the DPWH page. It seems the reclamation has almost reached Bacoor Bay and no signs of slowing down.
Hopefully it turn to be a great benefit to commuters and not damage the mangrove forests that grow around the area.

Cavite Batangas Transport Terminal Officially Open

As of early today, August 6, 2013, the South West Integrated Provincial Transport Terminal became operational.  Buses coming from Cavite and Batangas through Coastal Road will no longer enter the metro.  Instead, all will be collecting and dropping off passengers at the new terminal, eventually lessening the volume of buses plying Roxas Boulevard and EDSA pooling the provincial buses to one location and preventing colorum buses from operating the route via a new dispatch system.
The location.
