A P200-million technology upgrade is underway for the Subic-Clark-Tarlac Expressway, as its affiliate NLEX Corporation gears up to support a more seamless journey along the 94-kilometer expressway.
The project includes the installation of additional CCTVs and speed cameras to enhance expressway monitoring, as well as the modernization of computer systems and equipment to improve data processing and deliver a smooth and seamless travel experience.
“The system enhancement program in SCTEX is essential not only for ensuring faster and smoother travel, but also for enforcing stricter road discipline. These upgrades will significantly improve the safety and reliability of the road network, boosting motorists’ confidence,” NLEX President and General Manager Luis Reñon said.
Meanwhile, beyond the technology upgrades, the tollway company has also been focusing on infrastructure improvements and maintenance of the expressway.
The annual pavement repair program for SCTEX has commenced this month. At the same time, NLEX Corporation, in partnership with the Bases Conversion and Development Authority (BCDA), the owner of SCTEX, continues to repair and strengthen the Pasig–Potrero Bridge. Routine asset maintenance activities, such as tree trimming, repairing road furniture and signage, repainting, and drainage cleaning, are also ongoing.
These initiatives demonstrate NLEX’s commitment to improving its services and ensuring safer, more convenient travel for motorists.
NLEX is a subsidiary of the Metro Pacific Tollways Corporation, the toll road arm of the Metro Pacific Investments Corporation.
