Banban Bridge is a highway bridge in Central Luzon, Philippines[1] which is part of the MacArthur Highway (N2).[2]

The bridge was constructed from 1996 to 1998,[2] as part of the rehabilitation efforts on MacArthur Highway, following the 1991 eruption of Mount Pinatubo. It replaced the old bridge that was destroyed during the eruption of Mount Pinatubo.[3] It is one of the longest basket handle Nielsen-Lohse bridges in the world spanning a 174 meters (571 ft) long and is one of the first of its kind in the Philippines.[4]
