THE METROPOLITAN Manila Development Authority (MMDA) announced on Tuesday that the Estrella Service Road will be partially closed starting March 23 at 11 p.m. to give way to the ongoing rehabilitation of the Estrella-Pantaleon Bridge. The closure, which will be in effect for two years or until the completion of the bridge project, covers Gumamela Street going towards JP Rizal. The lanes going to Rockwell will remain open. Motorists are advised to take the following alternate route: Vehicles coming from EDSA/Rockwell must turn at Gumamela St., left at Camia St., on to JP Rizal. The MMDA said roadside clearing operations will be conducted at identified alternative roads, including streets of Camia, Gumamela, and Progreso starting next week. — Vince Angelo C. Ferreras
