Magapit Suspension Bridge, Suspension bridge in Lal-lo, Philippines

The Magapit Suspension Bridge spans 257 meters across the Cagayan River, connecting the eastern and western sections of Lal-lo with two traffic lanes and pedestrian paths.

In 1978, Engineer Angel G. Villanueva collaborated with Japanese consultants under IWCDC to construct this bridge, marking a transportation milestone in the Cagayan province.

Local residents named this structure the Golden Gate of Cagayan, reflecting its importance as one of only two bridges crossing the Cagayan River in the region.

The bridge structure maintains a load capacity of 20 tons and underwent a complete rehabilitation in 2012, requiring temporary ferry services during the construction period.

The bridge measures 449 meters in total length and features a central span of 257 meters, making it a primary connection point along the Maharlika Highway.
