The Makati–Mandaluyong Bridge is a four-lane road bridge crossing the Pasig River between Makati and Mandaluyong in Metro Manila, Philippines. It connects P. Burgos Extension, a continuation of Makati Avenue in Poblacion, Makati, at the south bank of the river, to Coronado Street in Hulo, Mandaluyong, at its north bank. The bridge was opened in 1986.[1]
The Hulo jeepney terminal, serving intra-city jeepney and tricycle routes in Mandaluyong, was established in 2015 and can be found under and adjacent to the bridge.[5] Until the opening of the Estrella–Pantaleon Bridge in 2011, the Makati–Mandaluyong Bridge was the only bridge connecting the two cities other than the Guadalupe Bridge that carries EDSA.[6]
