The reconstruction of the Angeles Friendship Bridge, destroyed by lahar flows in 1999, was a joint project of the city government, the Bases Conversion Development Authority (BCDA), the DPWH and the Clark Development Corporation (CDC).

Through the initiative of the President and in cooperation with the provincial and Angeles City governments, the construction of the two-lane, 240 linear-meter bridge began on Aug. 15, 2003 and was completed Oct. 25, 2006.

With its completion and connection to the Western Circumferential Road (WCR), the Friendship Bridge is expected to boost the economic influx between the Clark Special Economic Zone (CSEZ) and the municipalities south and west of Angeles City such as San Fernando City, Bacolor, Florida Blanca, Sta. Rita, among others.

The Friendship Bridge also has a vital link to CSEZ and other provinces in Central Luzon. It is also part of the access road from the North Luzon Expressway going to Subic-Clark-Tarlac Expressway project.
