Skyway Alabang Toll Plaza southbound entry closed from May 31 to June 15 as extension project resumes

The Skyway Alabang Toll Plaza southbound entry will be closed from May 31 to June 15, diversified conglomerate San Miguel Corp. (SMC) said.

This is in line with the resumption of the construction of the P10-billion Skyway Extension Project.

With this, private cars are advised to take Filinvest entry and/or National Road to Susana Heights entry, while trucks and buses are instructed to take National Road to Susana Heights entry.

"We are happy to report that despite the long delay due to the ECQ and the limited workforce deployed, we’ve been gaining a lot of ground in terms of construction these past two weeks," said SMC president and chief operating officer Ramon Ang.

"Workers are also back at the site and earning income for their families. We’re asking for the public’s continued cooperation and kind understanding for any delays our work might cause," he added.

This comes as the government gave the go-signal to resume construction works on the project starting May 15.

According to SMC, the closure of the Skyway Alabang Toll Plaza southbound entry will make way for bored piling works starting 6:00 a.m. on May 31.

The project will extend Skyway from Susana Heights in SLEX to Sucat and back, and will provide direct access to the elevate section of the Skyway.—AOL, GMA News
