Mandue City, DPWH to inspect 2 bridges

The Mandaue City Engineering Office, together with the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) Cebu Sixth District Engineering Office, will conduct a joint inspection of the Mactan-Mandaue Bridge and the Marcelo Fernan Bridge following the 6.9-magnitude earthquake that struck northern Cebu.

This comes after the Mandaue City Council approved a resolution calling for the inspection of the two bridges that connect Mandaue City and Lapu-Lapu City to ensure their structural integrity and safety.

City Councilor Jun Arcilla, chairman of the Committee on Infrastructure, said in an interview that the resolution aims to ensure the safety of motorists and commuters who pass through the bridges.

He said that city engineers and DPWH personnel will check for cracks and assess whether the bridges remain safe for passage.
