Rehabilitation works at the North Luzon Expressway (NLEX) and Subic-Clark-Tarlac Expressway (SCTEX) are scheduled to be completed by September 2024, before the holiday season.
This includes improvements to roads, bridges, and exits and entries.
NLEX Corporation President Luigi Bautista said the rehabilitation of the Bulacan portion of the NLEX covers Mabiga in Plaridel, Tabang Toll Plaza in Guiguinto, the southbound lane from the Tabang spur exit ramp to barangay Burol II in Balagtas and entry and exit ramps at the Bocaue Toll Plaza.
A priority on the Pampanga side is completing the raising of the road level in Tulaoc in San Simon.
Meanwhile, the roads on the SCTEX Spur Ramp or its connector from NLEX and also from SCTEX back to NLEX are being repaired. In Subic, the Manuali part of Porac, Pampanga is being repaired while in Tarlac, parts of Old San Jose are undergoing rehabilitation.
Meanwhile, San Ramon and Pagalangang in Dinaluiphan, Bataan; Dampe in Floridablanca, Pampanga; and Margot in the Angeles City are also being repaired.
The rehabilitation also includes maintaining good quality asphalt on both lanes of the North Harbor Link of NLEX.
NLEX Corporation specifically handles the patching or compaction of asphalt in perforated areas, rotomilling or grinding of worn asphalt, and asphalt overlaying or the laying of new asphalt that will serve as a road surface.
