Some members of SSC-Cebu today went to Cansaga Bay to see the currently u/c Cansaga Bay Bridge. The bridge, which is part of the Cebu North Coastal Road project, will connect Mandaue City and the town of Consolacion. it is said that once completed, the CNCR will cut travel time from the city to the northern part of Cebu in half. The project is also seen to significantly reduce traffic in Mandaue, Consolacion, and even Liloan to controllable levels.
By the way, sorry for the bad picture quality. I used my phone to take these photos. Anyways, here they are.

I heard that they will turn this area into a small park.
The bridge. Nice.
I don’t know what this is exactly.
To the bridge.
This young boy said that he was ‘fishing’.
Almost there.
There’s the bridge. It’s almost complete.

What a bright idea! This will lessen the road congestions. Way to go Cebu!
I’ve heard there’s an ongoing road construction right these areas but don’t have idea of how this is being done. WOW kanindot uy, mora pud diay SRP, gamit jud kaayo ni namo pauli sa Tuburan. Salamat kaayo Ley sa imong input.
What is dthe target date of completion.
kanus-a kaha mahuman ning project, for sure the real estate in Liloan to Compostela will be good…
re the target date of completion, it should be before GMA steps down on June 2010. ive heard that she wanted to make sure all projects be completed before a new President is sworn in this June.
We need infa like this! Good job!
This is one big road project that needs priority. After this, the crossing in front of the Lilo-an church will have to be looked into for this will be a choke point. The replica lighthouse might even be demolished. I hope it will just be relocated.
WOW! i guess i have every reason to go home lol hi lei! = )
nindot dyud ni once completed, and I hope the government will be vigilant sa mga squatters who are starting to move in. . . .
Mao gyud nay dakong problema. Humot baya kaayo na ang ilawom sa bridges ug squatters. I hope dili ni siya i-enroach ug squatters.
actually, naa na gyuy community diha before the construction G. mostly mga fishermen. pero lagi tungod ani nga bridge, im sure mas mudaghan pa na diha…
Thank you for the update, Ley! Lacion is still home to me so I hope it is for the better. Each time I visit Cebu, it gets harder and harder to get to the city faster from Lacion so this might help the congestion puhon.
wow.. thanks for the update ley..
hapit na sya mahuman…
paspasan unta ni nila og trabaho and be done before the next election .if new political party is in power and do not like Cebu, like what dedma Marcos had done to Cebu during those years, then LKK nga proyectoha.
It is good to see infrastructure projects at the outskirts of the city. Hope it’s done soon and not left unfinished. =)
Leyland, thanks for the update. Like Day Delza, Lacion is home to me. When this project is done, it will be a lot faster to go to the city. I was aware about this project, but just did not realized it will be done soon. When I was home last summer(remember me and hubby had dinner with you)my family was telling me about this project, but it has not stareted yet. Wow, they really are fast worker. Good for Lacion and the rest of the northern provincial town. It make for a quick trip to the city.
I love this. Makes our travel time shorter.
