It was constructed between January to February in 1945. It initially served as a pontoon bridge transporting U.S. Army jeeps and evacuate citizens caught in the crossfire during the Liberation of Manila.[2]       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Table of ContentsHistory[edit]Present condition[edit]Marker from the National Historical Commission[edit]See also[edit]References[edit]History[edit]There were plans for a new bridge to connect the Mendiola route to Malaca\u00f1ang Palace was made even before the emergence of World War II. However, the construction did not push through.[2] The pontoon bridge stood for several decades after the World War II despite the construction materials used to build it. It was made out of inflated rubber rafts placed side by side – spanning until the opposite bank of the Pasig River. Two parallel perforated steel planks, each measuring about 1 meter (3.3\u00a0ft) wide and 1.5 meters (4.9\u00a0ft) apart were laid upon its surface. It was built by the US Army Corps of Engineers – enough to carry human traffic as well as light vehicles.[3] On August 17, 1960, a barge collided against the wooden piles of the bridge. It caused major damages to the bridge, which caused flooding within the nearby residences.[2]In 1963, a permanent bridge was constructed, named Nagtahan. It connected Paco with Pandacan. However, the Mabini Shrine, the former residence of Apolinario Mabini, was situated on the north bank. The government, then, relocated the house at the Polytechnic University of the Philippines in Santa Mesa. In lieu with the 103rd birth anniversary of Apolinario Mabini on July 22, 1967, President Ferdinand Marcos issued the Proclamation No. 234, s. 1967, renaming Nagtahan Bridge as the Mabini Bridge, in memory of Apolinario Mabini, the Sublime Paralytic.[2]       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4In 2014, the Presidential Communications Development and Strategic Planning Office (PCDSPO) recommended changes, of the existing road signs to read Mabini Bridge, to the Department of Public Works and Highways \u2013 as a fitting contribution to the Mabini Sesquicentennial.[2]Present condition[edit]Of the 13 bridges that crosses the Pasig River as of that time, only the Mabini Bridge did not undergo major face-lifting procedures during 1998. Its huge brass profiles on the sides that illuminates at varying hues were the distinctive features of the Mabini Bridge.[4]Marker from the National Historical Commission[edit]The marker of Mabini Bridge was installed on July 22, 1967, on the occasion of the 103rd Birthday Anniversary of Apolinario Mabini. It was located along Nagtahan Boulevard – connecting Santa Mesa, Manila and Paco, Manila.[5]Filipino inscriptionEnglish inscriptionANG TULAY NA ITO, DATING NAGTAHAN, AY PINANGALANANG TULAY MABINI NG PANGULONG FERDINAND E.
