Made a new joyride for NLEX-SCTEX for the year 2017. There are many notable changes.

North Luzon Expressway is currently undergoing carriageway expansion. From the stretch of Santa Rita up to Pampanga area, the carriageway is adjusted top 3x3. As you can see along Candaba viaduct, there are new layby's (emergency parking) done to offset the removal of shoulder lanes to make way for the expansion. The NLEX-SCTEX integration has removed the Dau Toll Plaza and the SCTEX Mabalacat Toll PLaza for seamless flow. As for the toll plaza along Subic-Tipo (SFEX) it has been removed also. Toll payment for SFEX is now integrated in the southern terminus of SCTEX which is the Tipo Toll Plaza. SCTEX is also undergoing asphalt rehabilitation.

As MNTC takes over the management of SCTEX, the emergency number is now uniformed to 3-5000. The NLEX Santa Ines segment is also now a 2x2 carriageway. One more thing, a new exit for NB is being made along NLEX - Libtong Exit just before Meycauayan.
There are CCTV cameras installed along SCTEx - Southbound (Subic Route)

Another good news in NLEX is flexible mode of toll payment via mastercard wave pass, beep cards and cash besides easytrip.

NLEX should remove those barriers along the new carriageway, it is a cause for accident, dangerous and not driver friendly.

This was part 1 of my NLEX SCTEX SFEX TPLEX Complete Joyride series. Part 2 coming up in a while.
Signs has been updated - there are road numbers (from dpwh)
