Broken Bridge in Marcos HiWay

[tjader]

I apologize in advance if this is not the right place to post this.

Was on my bike riding up to Sierra Madre Hotel and I encountered this broken bridge. Cars can detour but bikes can take the makeshift bridge (photos attached)

Waypoint properties: N14 37.539 E121 14.688

Sorry dont know yet how to attach a waypoint.

Thanks a lot, this is of big help to fellow roadguiders, any idea when it will be finish? It appears that it will take so loooong need to find alternate route. Wondering now where is the alternate route
Attached is the gdb file and jpeg for roadguiders who might pass in the area.

Appreciate the reply sir, makes the effort worthwhile! I will be riding from Manila to Cebu on the 7th to attend the MC Federation President's Meeting, will post any road condition updates here as well!

Cheers!

PS - Thanks for moving the post, I now know where to post this kind of updates!

More power to the troops in roadguide!!!

Roads are ok most of the way but I made a mistake and confused "Dumarao" with "Dumalag" and ended up going through rock and soil roads on the way to Dumangas Port - my error was taking the right fork to Dumalag along Dao-Cuartero hi-way when I should have gone straight.

My Second mistake was missing the Cebu Trans-Central Hi Way and passing through an old and very narrow Asphalt road up the mountain through TOLEDO toward CEBU. But I guess I would not have stories to tell without those mistakes, so all is well in the end

Good ride Tjader!

Sorry for the mix up
Here is the detour track (1s) to avoid the collapsed bridge on Marcos Hiway after boso-boso heading towards Sampaloc Tanay

Should have read this earlier. I was on a road trip last weekend from Makati to Tanay via Marcos Highway when I encountered this.

Good thing my 760 re-routed me to the same route that edtf shared when I pressed the Detour button.

Great Adventure!! I had fun reading your travelogue.. One question. When travelling with a bike or a car on a RORO. Will a photocopy of the OR and CR do? Or would they need the original?

Thanks!!
