Boni Avenue is a major east-west thoroughfare in Mandaluyong, eastern Metro Manila, Philippines. It is a six-lane divided avenue that runs from Aglipay Street in the west to Epifanio de los Santos Avenue (EDSA) in Barangka Ilaya in the east. East of EDSA via the EDSA-Boni tunnel, it continues as Pioneer Street into Pasig. The avenue is named for Bonifacio Javier, a decorated guerrilla leader during World War II and mayor of Mandaluyong under whose term the road was constructed.[1]
Route description
The avenue commences at the junction with Aglipay Street in the city's downtown area (poblacíon) where San Felipe Neri Church is located. It heads southeasterly traversing the barangays of Old and New Zañiga and San José, and crossing Primo Cruz Street before coming to a large roundabout called Maysilo Circle in Plainview. At this roundabout which houses the Mandaluyong City Hall complex and the Archdiocesan Shrine of the Divine Mercy, Boni intersects with F. Martinez Avenue and San Francisco Street. It curves northeast past Maysilo Circle as it approaches a commercial district at Barangka Drive. East of Barangka, the avenue becomes more commercial with several retail outlets and condominium developments lining this section of Boni where the Rizal Technological University is also situated. The avenue ends at the junction with EDSA where the Boni Station of the Manila MRT-3 is also located.
