Luzon Bypass Infrastructure Project
The Luzon Bypass Infrastructure Project is a joint project of the Bases Conversion and Development Authority (BCDA) and the Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT).

The project is under the government’s National Broadband Plan, which intends to establish an ultra high-speed information highway. It will help improve the Internet speed and accessibility in the country.

Once operational, the economic zones under the BCDA will benefit from up to 500,000 megabytes per second (MBps) of Internet speed yearly. This will contribute to building a strong foundation for our own smart cities.
