Metro Pacific Tollways Corp. (MPTC) is considering offering free toll access on its Connector Road once the EDSA rehabilitation project begins next month, its chairman said on Tuesday.
MPTC chairman Manuel Pangilinan made the remarks after San Miguel Corp. agreed to provide toll-free access on parts of Skyway Stage 3 during the EDSA reconstruction.
“I think we also have a connector. Maybe we should do the same thing,” Pangilinan said.
“I think San Miguel has taken the lead there. It was a good lead that they’ve done. And I think we should follow their example. To help you out in the traffic situation, I guess, for the next two years or so,” he said.
The 7.70-kilometer NLEX-SLEX Connector Road links the end of NLEX Segment 10 at Circumferential Road 3 (C-3) in Caloocan to the end of Manila Skyway Stage 3 in Sta. Mesa, Manila.
