SUBIC BAY FREEPORT – Sinimulan na ang konstruksiyon ng P1.6-billion Subic Freeport Expressway (SFEX) Capacity Expansion project sa pamamagitan ng ground breaking kahapon sa Tipo Expressway.
Ang ground breaking ceremony ay pinangunahan ni Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority (SBMA) Chairman Wilma Eisma, kasama sina Bataan Governor Albert Garcia, 1st District Rep. Geraldine Roman, Zambales Gov. Hermogenes Ebdane, 1st District Rep. Jeffrey Konghun at NLEX Corporation President and General Manager Luigi Bautista.
Ayon kay NLEX Corporation Chief Operating Officer Raul Ignacio, ang proyekto ay magpapabilis sa biyahe mula Hermosa, Bataan hanggang Subic Freeport sa 10 minuto lamang mula sa dating isang oras.
“And that means comfort mobility and more fun going to Subic,” ani Ignacio.
Ang SFEX Capacity Expansion project ay kinabibilangan ng pagtatayo ng dalawang karagdagang expressway lanes, dalawang bagong tulay, at isang bagong tunnel o lagusan.
“Among the new features to be added in the expressway include the installation of more LED lights to improve motorists’ visibility at night, raising of Maritan Highway-Rizal Highway-Tipo Road Junction which is usually severed by flooding during rainy days and high tides.”
“One of the key drivers of economic growth is the network of high-quality roads. The NLEX Corp., through NLEX and SCTEX, and the soon- to-expanded SFEX not only intends to accelerate development but also hopes to encourage travel convenience and road safety,” wika ni Bautista.
Inaasahang matatapos ang proyekto sa Setyembre ng susunod na taon.
Ang NLEX Corporation ay isang subsidiary ng Metro Pacific Tollways Corporation (MPTC), ang tollways unit ng Metro Pacific Investments Corp. PNA
