Ibaan Sabang Bridge: Then And Now

The bridge was once considered as the highest and the longest bridge in the country. However, as per the first photo in the album, there were doubts if this was really Sabang Bridge.Currently, both ends of the bridge going to Ibaan and Batangas are in inclined manner and runs across a hill. The hill was cut to give way for the road. In this picture, the road on the other end does not show any sign of the current road. Also, there no cliff on the side of the road compared to present one. But then, WWII broke into the country. 

Any differences on the past and present situation must have been caused by the war and improvements made during/from American regime to present (A blog article will be next published as to its history.) Photos of the current bridge were taken last March 13, 2009 using a GEDSC DIGITAL CAMERA.The bridge hasn't changed much since. Newer photos will soon be added to this album.
