The southbound lanes of the Timog flyover along EDSA are closed for a month for repairs starting Saturday.

The ongoing repairs resulted in a 2-kilometer-long traffic jam on Saturday.

The restoration work, covering a 30-meter segment, consists of the rebuilding of the damaged bridge diaphragm and the construction of a new bridge deck slab.

“Total closure of the bridge has to be implemented considering that the construction works have to be done without any vibration movement,” Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) Chairman Romando Artes said in a statement.
