MANILA, Philippines – The Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) has been successfully completed right-of-way (ROW) acquisition for the 8.25-kilometer North Luzon Expressway (NLEX) Harbor Link Segment 10.
DPWH Secretary Mark Villar said during a site inspection on Friday, October 19, that P8-billion Segment 10 will be constructed "hopefully just in time for the Christmas rush."
Right-of-way issues have delayed completion of Segment 10 since 2015.
The NLEX Harbor Link Segment 10 is a 5.65-kilometer elevated expressway that will cross the NLEX, linking Valenzuela City to Navotas City. Its 2.6-kilometer road will pass through Malabon City, Caloocan City, and also extend to Radial Road 10 (R10) in Navotas City.
The segment is connected to the Port Area in Manila to northern provinces via the NLEX, 10 minutes for faster delivery of goods
Daily traffic for Segment 10 is expected to average 30,000 vehicles.
NLEX Corporation, formerly Manila North Tollways Corporation, is the builder and concessionaire of the NLEX. It also operates the Subic-Clark-Tarlac Expressway.
NLEX Corporation is a unit of the Metro Pacific Tollways Corporation, which is a subsidiary of Metro Pacific Investments Corporation. – Rappler.com
