Marcos Jr suspends Cavitex tolls from July 1-30

President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. announced on Thursday that toll collections on the Manila-Cavite Expressway (Cavitex) will be suspended from July 1 to July 30.

The decision was approved by the Toll Regulatory Board, which includes representatives from the DOTr and other government agencies, as well as the private sector.

President Marcos welcomed the move of the Philippine Reclamation Authority (PRA), with consent from Cavitex Infrastructure Corporation, to suspend toll fees for all vehicles passing through the expressway in Taguig, Parañaque, Las Piñas, Bacoor, and Kawit.

The TRB's approval followed a board resolution by the PRA, which will result in significant foregone revenues estimated in the hundreds of millions of pesos according to a Cavite Infrastructure Corporation press release.

Motorists are set to enjoy a 30-day toll holiday starting July 1 as confirmed by the Department of Transportation (DOTr).
