The unsolicited proposal by AC Infrastructure Holdings Corp. and SM Investments Corp. to build the P23.7-billion Circumferential Road 3 Elevated Expressway has an alignment conflict with another expressway project, according to the Public Works Department.
Alex Bote, director of DPWH Public-Private Partnership Service, said the planned 8.6-kilometer C3 Expressway that would pass the Ayala central business district and connect cities of Manila, Makati, and Pasay, would have a conflict in terms of alignment with the C3 Missing Link Project.
The C3 Missing Link is among the 75 high-impact infrastructure flagship projects approved by the National Economic and Development Authority.
“We’re not sure if they’re revising the proposal. It has a minor conflict with C3 Missing link. This is unsolicited, everything will come from the proponent. We will declare completeness [review] once it is clean,” Bote said.
AC Infrastructure, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ayala Corp. and SM Investments Corp., submitted their proposal to the Public Works Department to design, finance, construct, operate and maintain for a period of 35 years the proposed C3 Elevated Expressway.
The elevated toll road will run about 8.6 kilometers from Sta. Mesa, Manila to the Mall of Asia complex in Pasay City.
The proponents said C3 Expressway would provide an alternative to Edsa, which was now congested, and improve access to the Manila Bay development areas, the Makati central business district and the cities of Mandaluyong, San Juan and Manila.
The project would have five interchanges located in Sta. Mesa, the Circuit Makati, Ayala-Gil Puyat, Roxas Boulevard and SM Mall of Asia complex.
Meanwhile, Bote said the Japan International Cooperation Agency was set to complete the feasibility study for the C3 Missing Link Project this year.
The P10.3-billion C3 Missing Link project involves the construction of a 5.22-km six-lane road that will connect the end of existing C3 Road at N. Domingo St. in San Juan City to Buendia Ave., Makati City.
The project includes the construction of a 1.19-km four-lane elevated double-deck road, a 0.63-km six-lane road, a 2.98-km six-lane elevated single deck road, a 0.42-km six-lane road, service roads, intersections, culverts and related infrastructure and the installation of signaling systems.
