MOTORISTS headed to Manila have been advised to avoid roads surrounding the Otis Bridge, which was closed midnight of Tuesday as it showed signs of collapsing as indicated by its numerous cracks.

In an advisory, the Manila Police District Traffic Enforcement Unit (MPD- MDTEU) said all vehicles from the southbound lane of Nagtahan or Mabino Bridge intending to turn right at Paz Guanzon Street to United Nations Avenue, must take President Quirino Avenue instead, then turn right at Plaza Dilao and straight to President Quirino Avenue extension.
