The bypass road starts at Maple Grove in General Trias, traverses Tejero and San Juan, and leads to the Malabon Grande Bridge in Tanza. The new thoroughfare is expected to ease traffic congestion, particularly on Antero Soriano Highway.

“These access roads will open up new possibilities, not only for the people of General Trias City and Tanza, but also for Maple Grove and all the exciting developments that we are bringing into this development,” Tan said in a statement.

Maple Grove is being positioned as Cavite’s first modern central business district, with the P15-billion development project featuring residential condominiums, an upscale residential village, office towers, a transport hub, and a lifestyle mall.
