Metro Manila (AdChoiceTV, June 8) — Motorists plying the Subic-Clark Tarlac Expressway can expect an uptick in toll rates beginning next week after the Toll Regulatory Board approved the collection of an additional ₱0.51 per kilometer.
Beginning June 14 at 12:01 a.m., ordinary cars traveling from Mabalacat City in Pampanga to Tarlac will pay an additional ₱20 under the new toll fare matrix. Buses and small commercial trucks plying the same route will pay ₱40 more, while large trucks and trailers will pay an additional ₱60.
Ordinary cars traveling between Mabalacat and Tipo in Subic will be charged ₱32 more, while buses and small commercial trucks, and large trucks and trailers will be charged an additional ₱66 and ₱98, respectively.
Toll operator NLEX Corporation explained that SCTEX toll rates remained unchanged since 2011 while improvements along the expressway continued.
Speaking to AdChoiceTV News, Robert Chan hope that this hike will definitely help NLEX to improve its expressway to give motorist a better service. He was also hoping that NLEX will provide more signs informing slow vehicles to stay in the middle lane instead at an Overtaking lane.
