The Maria Clara Lorenzo Lobregat Highway (commonly known as MCLL Highway) is a two-to -four lane national highway running in the east coast part of Zamboanga City, Philippines from Barangay Licomo to Sta. Cruz Intersection.[1] Under Republic Act No. 9270 approved on March 19, 2004 the highway was named after the late Mayor Maria Clara Lobregat. [2]

The highway is also part of the Pan-Philippine Highway and a designated component of the Philippine highway network.

Incidents

  • On July 29, 2008- some 100 meters of the portion of the highway in barangay Victoria located 28 km from the city collapsed by 20 feet due to torrential rains that liquefied the soil beneath the highway. There were no reports of accidents or injuries, but hundreds of commuters were stranded in Zamboanga City because provincial buses could not pass through.[3]
