Attention SLEX users!

dati piso rin ang bicutan to nichols ngayon 30 php na!

We'd better support RUPA one way or another or else...

There's probably a very big likelihood that corruption is involved somewhere in this deal.

But let's be sober about the increases before we react. Toll rates in other countries average around P2.00 - P3.00 per kilometer. The cost of cement here is higher than elsewhere and other inputs (construction equipment, etc...) are also not cheaper.

What needs to be done is to have a fair benchmark to compare. A toll rate of P0.50/km is definitely not sustainable if we want a decent highway.

What's disconcerting about this is the way they're trying to keep secret the STOA which is supposed to be a public document. How can one be sober when he doesn't know what provisions that document contains? I think that what RUPA is doing is the prudent and right thing: they'd rather not wait until a 1,000% toll fee increase is upon us before taking any action, because by then it might be too late already. If there is any graft involved in this whole thing (and the likelihood is that there is), it might as well be exposed now, so that the public won't have to pay for it.

Kaunting aspalto,- dagdag sa toll fee.....

Pero, mukhang inaayos din nila ang SLEX after ng Filinvest Interchange... Itinaas na ang kalye para hindi na bahain ito lalo na sa tapat ng Alaska... Maganda ito para sa mga taga Laguna/Batangas/Cavite and other Southern Provinces....

The question that begs to be answered is why PNCC had to watch the commuters suffer and wait more than 10 years to address this problem. Is it because their franchise is expiring this year? Also, this is not the only flood-prone area of SLEX. During heavy downpours, certain areas between Bicutan and Sucat, and between Alabang and Sucat also get flooded.

Hahaha... don't get me wrong bro. And your points have real substance.

SLEX service still is wanting. Why only the improvement in front of Alaska? My thinking is that with that, they could now charge higher toll fees between Filinvest and Calamba exits. Wais...
