Highway system

The MacArthur Highway, officially the Manila North Road (MNR), is a 500-kilometer (310 mi), two-to-six lane, national primary highway in Luzon, Philippines.

History

MacArthur Highway was built in sections beginning in 1928 during the American colonial period.^[1] It followed much of the route of the old Manila Railroad line from Manila to Dagupan. It was named Highway 3 and was also called Route 3 in early U.S. military records.^[2] The highway eventually reached the Ilocos provinces in the north and became known as the Manila North Road spanning a distance of over 500 km (310 mi).^[3]

On June 17, 1961, the section of the Manila North Road between Manila and Pangasinan was renamed in honor of the Liberator of the Philippines during World War II, General Douglas MacArthur.^[2]^[4]

Route description

MacArthur Highway is a toll-free, two- to eight-lane national road that stretches for 500 km (310 mi) from the Bonifacio Monument in Caloocan to the northern province of Ilocos Norte, passing through three cities in Metro Manila (Caloocan, Malabon, and Valenzuela), three provinces of Central Luzon (Bulacan, Pampanga and Tarlac), and four provinces of the Ilocos Region (Pangasinan, La Union, Ilocos Sur and Ilocos Norte).^[3]

The highway parallels the North Luzon Expressway from Epifanio de los Santos Avenue (EDSA) to Mabalacat, the Subic–Clark–Tarlac Expressway from Mabalacat to Tarlac City, and the Tarlac–Pangasinan–La Union Expressway from Tarlac City to Rosario.

The entire road consists of series of the new route numbering system by the Department of Public Works and Highways. From Malabon to Guiguinto, it is the component of National Route 1 (N1) and the rest of the route up to Laoag is entirely designated as the National Route 2 (N2) of the Philippine highway network. It is also a component of R-9 of Manila's arterial road network.
