Construction of Roma Point Bridge under way

CONSTRUCTION of the Roma Point Bridge, which will connect Alabat island to mainland Quezon Province is now under way.

The 1.7-kilometer Alabat bridge project broke ground in 2018 and its foundation posts have been in place as of March 2020.

Since parts of the bridge structure will be submerged under seawater, the project required the use of Type 2 cement which is able to withstand constant sulfate attack.

Republic Cement is the only cement manufacturer that is licensed to produce Type 2 cement in Luzon. The company has given technical assistance through on-site trial mixes, raw materials testing, and concrete training for the project contractors through its Fast Lab on Wheels (FLOW) Truck. The project is being undertaken in partnership with contractor MG Lualhati Construction Corporation.

“We are proud and honored to continue supporting the nation as it builds its way to a brighter future. We understand that the country’s cement needs will continue to evolve and become more sophisticated as more and more projects go full steam ahead,” Republic Cement Chief Executive Officer Nabil Francis said in a statement.
