    Doc,- kindly educate me.

    What do you mean when you stated that "you missed the intake port" on this elevated highway?

    TIA.

    "intake port." upward slope entrance.

    there is an upward sloping segment of roadway, at the right side of the surface-grade road, where one drove up, to gain access to the segment of skyway that had just been opened last week.
    i missed it, partly because it was so un-obtrusive. i did not notice any before-entrance signage.
    the only sign i saw, was a small sign (1 meter wide, in my estimate) just beside the entrance to the slope.
    also, the construction works all around the vicinity, made it difficult to see things. hindi pa streamlined yung area. scaffoldings everywhere.

    ah... eh...
    ok lang.
    whichever direction, traffic downstairs is bypassed.

    but i noticed yesterday at 5 pm..
    ang haba ng northbound skyway traffic sa buendia... may TE sa itaas, sa ulo ng pila.. para yatang ini-ipon ang traffic for a considerable amount of time.. yung ibang drayber kasi, nasa labas ng sasakyan at nag-e-exercise ng paa..
    parang coastal road nung unang panahon..

    my feeling is,
    metro traffic is so bad,
    if a major roadway gets bogged down due to diggings or other, the rest of the other roads get even more congested.

    example,
    edsa traffic is bad, because folks who otherwise would have been using osmena and nagtahan, do edsa..

    When the new ramp from Merville opened, the northbound traffic of C5 from SLEX got worse. Right after exiting SLEX, it is bumper to bumper up to the new U-Turn slot in front of Heritage. Usually, traffic on that part is light. You can even do triple digit speeds from SLEX exit up to the ridge before the exit to Bayani road.

    It is because the vehicles from Merville, Moonwalk, Bicutan, Paranaque, Las Pinas, Cavite do not get filtered passing through Sales or Bicutan to get to C5.... Plus of course those coming from SLEX south....

    So, C5 is now the new bottleneck....

    And Kaingin road is still a crater of an experience after C5 southlink.... from 4 lanes and together with counterflow of motorcyles and tricycles and what have you to just one lane in a bumpy and water-soaked soil road.... Up to the intersection with Multinational Village....

    It's getting worse (and unpredictable)

    From Caltex Wilson to Edsa Shang earlier, it took me 57 mins. [emoji849]

    nalilito nga ako sa dalawa kasi most news use both Skyway Stage 3 and SLEX-NLEX Connector Road in the same articles. so since si Ramon Ang ang nagpromise na operational by March 2020, it pertains to Skyway Stage 3, right? hmm cautiously optimistic here kasi sa latest drone video update parang andami pang kulang. pero am very excited about this and sana nga mabawasan traffic sa edsa at C5.

    Skyway Stage 3 is yang Skyway na dadaan sa ilog.

    NLEX Connector is yung from C3 na dadaan sa PNR RROW at dudugtong sya sa Skyway Stage 3 sa may bandang Paco. Pacorrect na lang po kung mali.

    Di ko kitang kaya ng March 2020 kahit partial operation. Pero here's hoping na this year na ito matapos.

    I think preps ito for the impending trafficmageddon due to pile boring works for Stage 2 expansion - Alabang viaduct segment. Meron na kasi mga tarp announcements sa mga poste sa area na ito.
