    Of course, besides time, you can have saving on fuel and engine depreciation.

    Other benefits can be less stress due to traffic.

    I can see the new Skyway benefitting those who take UV Express to Ayala... You pay more pero you reach earlier..

    For the private driver naman. Not only does it allows us to save on gas and car maintenance, it also allows us to purchase a bigger and better house in QC

    bec of traffic... we are all trying to buy a decent 50sqm condo sa BGC, MOA and Ayala.

    when I purchased my condo.
    6.5M for a 2 bedroom unit (2 parking slots)

    I was looking around Fairview and remember seeing Camella homes at 5.5M (slightly bigger house compared to my condo, 2 car garage)

    My mom's subd in QC are presently selling houses at 5M...

    ***
    that 1.5M price difference will mean using the Skyway 2-way for 7.5 years everyday

    maybe they have overstayed their welcome in the places they are being booted out from.

    As stated, meh public hearing pa naman sa toll fees, pero sana mapalitan pa yung toll fee nung mga asa gitnang intercity exits to actual distance traveled. Exit ka sa Q. Ave / A. Boni / P274 din, ouchy...yung Buendia to NLEx na P274 mabigat pero IMO "okay" na yan kasi end-to-end naman na yun at price of convenience, and RSA / SMC has to recoup their investment.

    Yung A. Blvd to Q. Ave na P133 talaga yung

    This is supposed to be SLEX-NLEX connector. Ibaba mo yung toll sa inter-city exits and it becomes an elevated toll-way for NCR. And worse, baka mag-cause pa ng traffic sa taas at affected yung SLEX to NLEX (or vice versa) travellers, negating the purpose of the skyway.
