Adjacent routes like EDA, South Superhighway, and C5 may also be relieved of terrible traffic especially during rush hour.<\/p>\n
According to DPWH Secretary Mark A. Villar, the 3.1-kilometer project will be in two phases: \u201cPhase One, costing Php 458-M, would run from 5th Avenue to Bayani Road; while Phase Two, amounting Php 537.5-M, would comprise Bayani Road to SLEX Interchange.\u201d<\/p>\n The widening of Fort Bonifacio-Nichols Field Road, more commonly known as Lawton Avenue, may cause some inconvenience to traversing motorists in the meantime, but \u201cit is temporary and limited in duration which cannot outweigh [the benefits] of new concrete road that ensures an economical, sound and more stable pavement structure with longer performance period,” said Villar.<\/p>\n Sources: DPWH website<\/a>, PIA website<\/a><\/em><\/span>, Philstar It will make your BGC-NAIA trip much shorter!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":20478,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[563,3777,848,3778],"class_list":["post-20475","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-and-current-events","tag-bgc","tag-lawton-avenue","tag-news","tag-widening-project"],"acf":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2017\/08\/f173ef5c6a9f3f309368760941ca99b6-e1503568909362.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20475","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=20475"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20475\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":20496,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20475\/revisions\/20496"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/20478"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=20475"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=20475"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=20475"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"\"](\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2017\/08\/f173ef5c6a9f3f309368760941ca99b6.jpg\")
