Estrella Flyover
Estrella Flyover

The Estrella Flyover, also known as the EDSA–Estrella Ramp and the Rockwell Flyover, is a two-lane flyover connecting Epifanio de los Santos Avenue (EDSA) and Estrella Street in Makati, Metro Manila, the Philippines, facilitating access to the Rockwell Center mixed-use development. Built by Rockwell Land Corporation, the developer of Rockwell Center, construction of the flyover began in 1998, originally to facilitate direct northbound traffic flows to Rockwell Center from the Makati Central Business District and the Bonifacio Global City in Taguig via EDSA. Initial plans for managing traffic around the area with the flyover's construction were devised by local construction consultancy SMDI Consultants, while the flyover itself was originally designed by Katahira & Engineers Asia, taking into account the limited land area on which to build it partially due to the construction of the Manila Metro Rail Transit System (MRT). Final plans for the flyover, however, were completed by Ove Arup & Partners, DCCD Engineering Corporation and CJG & Associates.On April 23, 2002, Rockwell Land opened the 620-meter (2,030 ft) long, ₱210 million flyover to traffic, with the inauguration led by Oscar Lopez, chair of the Lopez Group of Companies (the parent company of Rockwell Land), and attended by officials of both companies. Although Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) Secretary Simeon Datumanong, Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) Chairman Benjamin Abalos Sr., and Makati Mayor Jejomar Binay were invited to attend the inauguration, they were instead represented respectively at the event by DPWH Undersecretary Manuel Bonoan, MMDA General Manager Jaime Paz, and Makati Vice Mayor Ernesto Mercado, respectively.The Estrella Flyover was originally one-way, but on December 21, 2012, the MMDA opened the flyover to two-way traffic from 7:00 to 10:00 am in order to ease traffic congestion as a result of cars turning right onto EDSA from Estrella Street. Done in coordination with Rockwell Land, the move to two-way traffic was initiated in part because of increased traffic flows to the area as a result of the opening of the Estrella–Pantaleon Bridge in 2011. However, on September 5, 2016, the MMDA decided to return to one-way traffic.

Kalayaan Flyover
Kalayaan Flyover

The Kalayaan Flyover, also known as the EDSA–Kalayaan Flyover, is a four-lane flyover connecting Gil Puyat Avenue, Epifanio de los Santos Avenue (EDSA), Kalayaan Avenue, and 32nd Street in Metro Manila, the Philippines. Located primarily in Makati with a short portion in Taguig, it facilitates access from the Makati Central Business District to the Bonifacio Global City and, ultimately, to Circumferential Road 5 (C-5). Preparation work for the flyover began in 1997, when the Bases Conversion and Development Authority (BCDA) announced the construction of two new primary access points to the Bonifacio Global City, with the flyover serving as the main western access point to the area. Designed by Katahira & Engineers Asia, actual construction of the flyover began in late 1997 with the construction of the segment between Gil Puyat Avenue and EDSA, contracted to the Uy-Pajara Construction Company. Work on the segment between Kalayaan Avenue and the Bonifacio Global City meanwhile began in April 1999, with the work being contracted to F.F. Cruz and Co., one of the Philippines' largest construction companies. Capable of holding up to 4,000 vehicles at one time, the flyover would reduce travel times between Makati and the Bonifacio Global City to five minutes by providing a direct connection between the two business districts instead of needing to route vehicles through EDSA.The 1.5-kilometer (0.93 mi) flyover was inaugurated by President Joseph Estrada and other government officials on January 25, 2000. Although promoted as a public project, it has been rumored that the ₱950 million spent for the flyover's construction did not come from public funds, but rather was underwritten by the First Pacific group through their local subsidiary, Metro Pacific.Despite being a flyover, the entire road is designated as National Route 191 (N191) of the Philippine highway network.
