Pasig mayoral candidate Sarah Discaya has made a bold promise: if elected, she’ll finish what previous administrations started — and left hanging.

At the top of her list? The long-delayed Pinagbuhatan-Kalawaan Bridge, a project she says could bring real relief to traffic-weary residents of Barangay Pinagbuhatan.

“There are bridges that aren’t just made of cement — they’re made of hope,” Discaya said. “The Pinagbuhatan-Kalawaan Bridge is one of them. It was started, but never finished.”

For Discaya, every day the bridge remains unfinished is another day of missed opportunity.

“When a structure like that just sits there, idle, lives are affected. Families suffer. Progress stalls,” she added. “This isn’t just a bridge — it’s a connection from patience to progress.”

She believes once completed, the bridge won’t just ease traffic; it will open up better access to livelihood, bring comfort to commuters, and spark momentum for development in Pasig.

“It’s a bridge of justice — for those who have waited far too long,” she said. “A bridge of unity. And a bridge to a new Pasig. One that doesn’t just promise, but actually delivers.”

Discaya, a successful businesswoman and head of a quadruple-A construction firm, also set her sights on reviving the long-neglected Rosario Sports Complex.

“That building has been standing for years. But what is it now? A structure that’s become a symbol of broken promises,” she said. “At night, it looks haunted. During the day, it’s just a sad reminder of what could’ve been.”

She envisions something entirely different.

“No space should go to waste. No project should be abandoned,” she said.

Discaya plans to turn the structure into a modern gymnasium — a safe and inspiring space for Pasigueño youth to train, compete and dream.
