Santa Monica–Lawton Bridge

[4] The project is handled by a joint venture of Persan Construction, Inc. and Sino Road and Bridge Group Company Ltd., with consultants DCCD Partners and Pertconsult International.

[1] The main section of the bridge was inaugurated by top government officials on June 12, 2021, coinciding with the Philippine Independence Day commemorations.

The Lawton Avenue – Global City Viaduct was then inaugurated by President Rodrigo Duterte on September 30, 2021, and was opened the next day.

[10][5] The location and route of the bridge on the Mandaluyong and Pasig sides were also criticized for drawing and introducing traffic congestion onto the Kapitolyo neighborhood and the narrow Brixton Street in what an urban planner describes as "an example of Braess's paradox".

[11] On June 23, 2022, Binibining Cebu 2016 winner Raine Baljak posted a video on TikTok where she tried to walk from Bonifacio Global City to Mandaluyong on foot, in which Google Maps gave her directions to use the bridge, despite its narrow and incomplete sidewalk.
