IDENTIFIED NEEDS:
It had to adapt to a great slope (since s a cable stayed bridge with a great main span) and, joining the Cebu Coastal Road it had to turn to adapt to the existing road.

The adaptation from the Mersey geometry to this new bridge since this is reused material. The inner form, it had to adapt to an inner rib, blisters and turns, so the folding and moving space was very limited.
