Villar: Cavitex C5 Link to be completed by 2022

MANILA: Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) Secretary Mark Villar, together with representatives from Cavitex Infrastructure Corporation (CIC), recently conducted an inspection of the construction progress of the Cavitex C5 Link Segments 2 and 3A2.

The inspection team checked on the progress of the ongoing construction of the Cavitex C5  Link ramp. It is part of Segment 2, which is a 1.9-km 2x3 lane portion that will soon connect Cavitex R1 to Sucat, bypassing Sucat Road and Quirino Avenue. The inspection team also visited the construction site of Segment A32, a 1.6-km 2x3 lane portion that will soon connect Merville to RSG Subdivision in Pasay. Cavitex C5 Link is a segment of the Manila-Cavite Toll Expressway.
 
Villar said, "With the progress we have seen on-site today, we are optimistic that the Cavitex C5 Link segment will be completed as planned. We really look forward to the completion of this project because aside from helping decongest EDSA, Sales Road, and other major thoroughfares, this expressway will help reduce the travel time of our motorists from Cavitex to Makati and Taguig and vice versa by 45 minutes."
 
The operational segment of Cavitex C5 Link from Merville to Taguig serves around 12,000 motorists daily. Once the whole 7.7-km expressway is completed, it is expected to cater to around 50,000 motorists, particularly those coming from Taguig, Makati, Las Piñas, and Pasay.
 
"Together with CIC, we continue to double our efforts, all the while looking after the safety of the workers to ensure we complete Segment 3A2 by the first quarter of 2022 and Segment 2 by the third quarter, also of next year," Villar added.
 
CIC strictly observes health and safety protocols in the construction sites. Shuttle service and personal protective equipment (PPE) are also provided to the employees. CIC has also started its vaccination program to protect its personnel against COVID-19.
 
CIC is a subsidiary of the Metro Pacific Tollways Corporation (MPTC). MPTC manages the operations of CALAX, Cavitex, North Luzon Expressway (NLEX), NLEX Connector Road, Subic-Clark-Tarlac Expressway (SCTEX), and Cebu-Cordova Link Expressway (CCLEX).
