Friendship-Gate-Clark

 Friendship Gate exiting Clark Air Base
Philippines


The original Friendship Gate exited direction in front of Friendship Highway.  They moved the gate after the Pinitubo eruption to make way for the expressway because the overpass on the way to Subic begins just before where the Friendship Gate used to be.  You will notice in this video, that I drive under an overpass right after I turned left at the traffic signal in front of the Clark runway.  When you exit the gate, you need to turn left to go down to friendship/filam highway.

  1. I didn't recognize the Friendship Gate area at all from my '70s days at Clark when we visited in 2015 ... Rick Tripp

    1. They moved it a hundred yards or so up from the FilAm Friendship Highway. They did this to make room for the new expressway going to Subic. I plan to take another video showing where the gate used to be so check back for an update.
