Driving to Baguio at Midnight

[lowslowbenz]

Same here. Kennon should be fine. I'm thinking more about the status of the roadworks in Pangasinan.

Last time I went there was Dec 1. From NLEX, take SCTEX and TPLEX. Exit TPLEX in Pura, and follow the signs going out to the National Highway. TPLEX was still free when I used it (no toll). The roads in Tarlac and Pangasinan are still being widened, so expect sporadic stops as sometimes only one lane is passable. The town of Villasis has the worst road conditons (still unfinished roadworks). If you can by-pass that or travel at night time, much better.

A Vios (1.3) carrying 6 adults and luggage will use up about 30 liters of fuel one way. Don't be surprised, that's a lot of weight for a small engine to lug along. Be sure to gas up in Rosario town or Sison, if possible full tank again. Gas prices in Baguio are very expensive.

Kennon is being widened in some portions and should be okay to take when its not raining (*******ial downpour). Marcos highway sees a lot of traffic since large buses and truck/trailers are prohibited from using Kennon.

Happy trip.

OT:

What's wrong with the word T-O-R-R-E-N-T?

I used it in *******ial downpour and it was edited ...
