The first phase of a 19.83-kilometer, six-lane road project connecting New Clark City (NCC) to Clark International Airport (CRK) has been completed.
Costing P3.7 billion, the 5.33km CRK to NCC Access Road project will provide faster and easier access to the gateway’s new passenger terminal, according to the Bases Conversion and Development Authority.
Part of the project’s first phase is the iconic 900-meter bridge crossing the Sacobia River in Bamban, Tarlac.
The entire access road project will reduce travel time from NCC to other districts of Clark from 45 minutes to about 15 minutes.
The entire P8.2-billion access road is scheduled for completion by the second quarter of 2022 and is funded by the General Appropriations Act.
The P2.72-billion second phase, or the Aranguren-Dapdap section, consists of an 8.80km, six-lane road. It is 62.16% complete as of end-2021 and expected to be finished by the first quarter of 2022.
The P1.86-billion third and last phase, or the Dapdap-Calumpang section, is a 5.70km, six-lane road. Construction is at 31.03% as of end-2021 and is targeted for completion by the second quarter of this year.
Both Phases 2 and 3 feature bike and pedestrian lanes, roadway lighting and linear parks.
Motorists will also be able to use the access road upon completion of all three phases.
