Daang Hari (lit. 'Road [of the] King'), also known as theLas Piñas–Muntinlupa–Laguna–Cavite Link Road (LPMLC Link Road),[1] is a connector road that links southernMetro Manila to the province ofCavite in thePhilippines. It begins as a north–south road from Commerce Avenue, just south of theAlabang–Zapote Road, running for 5.9 kilometers (3.7 mi) on the boundary ofLas Piñas andMuntinlupa. It then runs east–west for about 9.2 kilometers (5.7 mi) from its junction with Daang Reyna, winding throughBacoor,Imus,Dasmariñas, andGeneral Trias.
Most of Daang Hari Road is a four-lane median-divided highway.
A spur road named Daang Reyna leads to some gated communities inDasmariñas, Cavite,Muntinlupa, andSan Pedro,Laguna via Magsaysay Road. The spur is mostly a two-lane divided road.
Daang Hari's northern terminus is at the junction with Commerce Avenue in Madrigal Business Park nearAlabang Town Center, where it continues from the short Investment Drive from Alabang–Zapote Road. The road forms the border between BarangayAyala Alabang andPoblacion of Muntinlupa to the east and Barangay Almanza Dos of Las Piñas to the west. The road passes the following villages from north to south: T.S. Cruz Subdivision, Ayala Alabang, Ayala Southvale, Versailles, Katarungan Village, and Portofino Heights before coming to a roundabout with Daang Reyna and Muntinlupa–Cavite Expressway (MCX) nearEvia Lifestyle Center.
From the Daang Reyna junction, the road curves sharply to the west and traverses the Molino villages of Bacoor, including, from east to west, Verdana Homes, Malipay and Springville South. It then veers north as it intersects SoMo Road, near the namesake mall, before intersecting with Molino-Paliparan Road where The Molino Flyover goes through Daang Hari.
A few hundred meters west of Molino–Paliparan Road, Daang Hari enters Imus, passing through Barangay Pasong Buaya before terminating at the intersection with Aguinaldo Highway in Anabu near the boundary with Salitran, Dasmariñas whereThe District mall is located. A flyover is under construction to divert through traffic on the existing intersection with Aguinaldo Highway. In 2019, the flyover was opened to the public.[2]
Daang Hari includes an extension toGeneral Trias namedOpen Canal Road, also namedDaang Hari Extension. The original road is an access road forirrigation canals maintained by theNational Irrigation Administration. The road passes by Lancaster New City and other nearby subdivisions and some paddy fields before ending at Arnaldo Highway in barangay Pasong Camachile. Open Canal Road is a minor local road up to Governor Ferrer Drive. The road is currently under road widening.
The road was inaugurated on December 13, 2003, as theLas Piñas–Muntinlupa–Laguna–Cavite (LPMLC) Link Road that runs from Ayala Alabang to Molino Road. It was built as part of then-SenatorManny Villar's initiative to decongest traffic in southern Metro Manila.[1]
Works by theDepartment of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) on the road was completed in 2005 and is composed of two roads, theLas Piñas–Muntinlupa–San Pedro Road (which includes the present Daang Reyna) within Metro Manila and the original Daang Hari through Bacoor and Imus.[3]
Daang Hari is claimed by paranormal believers to be haunted by specters of the murder victims whose bodies were dumped in the area during the time it was still sparsely populated and unlit.[4]
Daang Hari has no official kilometer count as it is not under the jurisdiction of theDepartment of Public Works and Highways (DPWH).
