| Abstract: |
Bataan-Cavite Interlink Bridge (BCIB) in the Philippines is a proposed 32km sea-crossing which will connect Bataan and Cavite provinces, to unlock opportunity for economic growth and expansion outside Metro Manila. A Feasibility Study was carried out to plan the road link, which will involve two major navigation bridges, long marine viaducts, and interchange connections. This paper outlines the Feasibility Study, the navigation clearance study and the Preliminary Design of the crossing. It highlights how the navigation clearances were assessed and confirmed, and how the bridge options were evaluated in order to come up with an optimum solution. |
