Consulting Services for the Construction Supervision of Contract Package 1, Contract Package 2,
and Contract Package 3, under Stage 2 of the Laguna Lakeshore Road Network (LLRN) Project
– Phase I
I. BACKGROUND INFORMATION

A. Introduction

1. The Government of Philippines (the Government) has applied for loan from the Asian
Development Bank (ADB) towards the cost of the infrastructure development of the
Laguna Lakeshore Road Network (LLRN) Project – Phase I.

2. The Laguna Lakeshore Road Network (LLRN) Project has been included in the priority
list, where its feasibility study has been completed under the Infrastructure Preparation
and Innovation Facility (IPIF) in 2020. This IPIF projects involves comprehensive project
identification and planning stage, Pre-Feasibility Study and Feasibility Study with the
overarching intent to provide a safer and faster alternative to the motorists traveling
south / north to vitalize the economies for the surrounding areas and the following
impacts and benefits: (a) reduce transportation constraints on the existing road; (b)
induce economic development in the area and nearby provinces and promote the
achievement of the development objectives being pursued in the area; and (c) provide
safer, convenient and faster travel to motorist from north and south of the project area
to various tourist business destinations in Laguna, Rizal, Quezon and Batangas.

3. The full road network will be comprised of viaduct and embankment hybrid scheme with
an approximate length of 37.5 kilometers with seven (7) interchanges (Lower Bicutan,
Sucat, Alabang, Tunasan, San Pedro/Biñan, Cabuyao, and Calamba) with a total of 6.87
km of slip roads and 4.76 km of Manila South Road (MSR) connecting roads.

4. The Detailed Engineering Design (DED) was undertaken under the IPIF additional
financing (ADB Loan No. 3886-PHI) in December 2021. It includes the DED of the four
(4) Contract Packages from Lower Bicutan to Calamba and MSR connecting roads and
the Feasibility Study of Laguna Lakeshore Road Network (LLRN) Project – Phase II
(Eastern Side). The DED also conducted studies on environment through the
Environmental Management Plan (EMP) and social safeguards through the Resettlement
Plan (RP), preparation of bidding documents, and carrying out due diligences necessary
to support the government and ADB in project processing and procurement.

5. The DPWH will represent the Government as the Executing Agency (EA) of the Project.
The Roads Management Cluster II (Multilateral) of the Unified Project Management Office
(RMC II - UPMO) of the EA will be the Implementing Agency (IA) responsible for
implementing the Project. The Consultant will be selected based on the Quality and
Cost Based Selection (QCBS) method following the ADB Procurement Policy 2017 and
Procurement Regulations for ADB Borrowers 2017 which can be found at the following
website:
www.adb.org/site/business-opportunities/operational
procurement/consulting/documents.

6. During the services, the Construction Supervision Consultant (the Consultant) will embed
selected personnel from the DPWH to receive training, and experience construction

supervision and other relevant activities for capacity-building purposes. For all project
activities, the Consultant will report and coordinate to DPWH through the Roads
Management Cluster II (Multilateral), Unified Project Management Office (RMC II –
UPMO).

7. The Terms of Reference (TOR) includes the objective of the project, scope of work,
responsibilities, and deliverables of the Consultant. It is estimated that a minimum of
377 person-months of international and 1,946 person-months of national
consultants’ services will be required for the Construction Supervision team for this
assignment. The location of the assignment shall be Laguna and Metro Manila,
Philippines, and nearby areas in the country as needed. The assignment is expected to
commence in Fourth Quarter of 2024 and be completed in approximately Thirty-six
(36) months for the Construction Supervision and twelve (12) months Defects
Liability Period (DLP) for the three (3) Contract Packages namely:

Contract Package 1: Alabang-San Pedro/Biñan Section, Stage 2

Contract Package 2: San Pedro/Biñan-Cabuyao Section, Stage 2 and
Contract Package 3: Cabuyao-Calamba Section, Stage 2.

B. Background
8. The Project is one of the DPWH flagship projects which is deemed responsive to the
Government's thrusts and strategies as laid out in the 2017-2022 Philippine Development
Plan (PDP) Chapter 19: Accelerating Infrastructure Development, specifically on
enhancing transport sector efficiency through improved connectivity, and ensuring that
infrastructure projects are designed with appropriate safety standards and are improved
to ensure sustainability. The project is also consistent with the National Transport Policy,
specifically in improving access and support to agro-industry and trade to ensure the
efficient and unimpeded flow of people, goods, and services, and in promoting inclusive
growth in the areas outside of the country's key cities. The north-south transport corridor
in the project area, consisting mainly of the South Luzon Expressway (SLEX) and the
Manila South Road are heavily congested, the proposed road will provide a safer and
faster alternative to the road users travelling the north-south transport corridor of the
western shoreline of the lake. The Project is to build a permanent linkage between the
Cities along the western coastline of the Laguna Lake, and the impact would be expanded
to the broader regional boundaries of Metro Manila and Calabarzon.

9. Significant levels of congestion exist along the national highway from Manila to Los Baños
in Laguna Province. This is leading to long journey times which impacts on workers,
residents and tourists traveling between the two areas, businesses in Manila and the
provinces around Lake Laguna, and tourism destinations in Laguna, Rizal, Quezon, and
Batangas. The construction of LLRN would ease the pressure on the network, creating a
direct route between Laguna and Manila. It would lead to a reduction in congestion and
improve the network performance. Travel times will also improve significantly following
the implementation of the proposed scheme.

10. Contract Package 1 involves the construction of the following components:

• Mainline (Alabang – San Pedro/Biñan) – 7.629 km
Embankment – 1.720 km; and
Viaduct/Bridge - 5.909 km.

• Interchange (Tunasan) - 3.328 km

Slip Road - 0.946 km;
Ramps - 2.092 km; and
Roundabout - 0.289 km.

• Interchange
Ramps (Portion from Alabang Interchange) – 0.45km; and
Ramps (Portion from San Pedro/Binan Interchange) – 0.62km.

• Manila South Road (MSR) Connecting Road (Tunasan) – 0.581 km

11. Contract Package 2 involves the construction of the following components:

• Mainline (San Pedro/Biñan – Cabuyao) – 12.232 km
Embankment – 7.507 km; and
Viaduct/Bridge - 4.725 km.

• Interchange (San Pedro/Biñan) - 2.946 km

Slip Road - 0.650 km;
Ramps - 2.006 km; and
Roundabout - 0.289 km.

• Manila South Road (MSR) Connecting Road (Tunasan) – 0.581 km

12. Contract Package 3 involves the construction of the following components:

• Mainline (Cabuyao - Calamba) – 9.698 km
Embankment – 6.17 km; and
Viaduct/Bridge – 3.528 km.

• Interchange (Cabuyao and Calamba) - 3.912 km

Slip Road - 3.038 km; and
Ramps/Roundabout – 0.578 km.

• Manila South Road (MSR) Connecting Road (Cabuyao) – 2.975 km

13. The LLRN Project will transform the journey times, reliability and connectivity between
Metro Manila and Laguna province, by providing a new piece of infrastructure that will
benefit workers, residents and tourists traveling between the two places, as well as local
businesses, and tourism destinations. The implementation of LLRN will lead to overall
time savings across all vehicle modes travelling from Laguna to Manila by its completion
in year 2027.

14. The LLRN Project will serve population growth by increasing Metro Manila’s road network
capacity, making it easier for people to move around. One of the key drivers of future
economic growth in Metro Manila and Laguna region will be infrastructure investment.
Metro Manila’s strong population growth is resulting in more development being pushed
out into the urban fringe. As distances between business, housing and the city become
larger due to urban sprawl, the role of transport infrastructure becomes ever more
important. A key challenge will be ensuring access to employment for this rapidly growing

population; increased transport capacity to support this growth will be critical to

supporting economic development and social wellbeing.
