The construction of a new Kalibo-Numancia bridge spanning Aklan River is ongoing. 

 The P370-million new bridge is constructed parallel to the old Kalibo-Numancia bridge, which is also being rehabilitated by the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH). 

The bridge is vital for the socio-economic development plan for the municipalities of Kalibo and Numancia as it serves as an access route to the municipalities in the eastern and western side of Aklan. 

The Kalibo-Numancia bridge is one of the major road network projects lined-up by DPWH for the province of Aklan.

Last month, Aklan officials met with Public Works and Highways Secretary Rogelio Singson to see the progress of the construction of the bridge project, which will also greatly contribute in the tourism industry and provide easier transport of people, goods and services.

The project involves the construction of two- lane thoroughfare with 15 spans measuring 30 meters each with a width of 7.32 meters and balluster type concrete railings. 

The bridge, scheduled to be completed by end of 2015, is also expected to reduce traffic congestion in the area.

Target ng Pamahalaan ng Aklan at ng Department of Public Works and High-ways (DPWH) na matapos ang construction ng Kalibo-Numancia bridge sa March 2015.

Ayon kay Aklan District Enginner Noel Fuentebella, tuloy-tuloy na umano ang ginagawang proyekto ngayon kung saan inuumpisahan na ring itayo ang mga poste ng bagong ginagawang tulay.

Samantala, isa umano itong magandang tulay kung saan may kataasan ng kunti sa kasalukuyang Kalibo-Numancia bridge.

Nabatid na aabot sa P370 million ang magagastos sa 2-Lane Bridge kung saan lalagyan din ito ng sidewalks, baluster railings at street heights.

Sa kabilang banda natulungan na rin umano ni Aklan Congressman Teodorico Harisco at ni Governor Joeben Miraflores ang 17 pamilyang apektado ng pagpapagawa ng bagong tulay kung saan binigyan na rin sila ng relocation sites.

Asahan din aniya ng mga Aklanon ang mas magandang tulay kung saan hindi na basta-bastang maabot ng tubig dahil sa elevation nito.
