Muntinlupa–Cavite Expressway


The Muntinlupa–Cavite Expressway, more commonly known as MCX and formerly as Daang Hari-SLEX Link Road, is a long access-controlled toll expressway linking the southern province of Cavite to Muntinlupa in the Philippines. It is currently the shortest expressway in the Philippines. It is owned by the Department of Public Works and Highways and operated by MCX Tollway Inc., a subsidiary of Ayala Corporation's AC Infrastructure Holdings Corporation.
At the east end, it feeds into and from the South Luzon Expressway in the city of Muntinlupa in Metro Manila. At the west end, it feeds into the junction of Daang Hari Road and Daang Reyna Road near the city's borders with Las Piñas and Bacoor.
The expressway was opened to traffic on July 24, 2015. The expressway is designated as a spur component of Expressway 2 of the Philippine expressway network.
On December 7, 2019, AC Infrastructure Holdings Corporation entered a deal with its partner, the life insurance company FWD Life Insurance Philippines, unveiling the highway as FWD-Muntinlupa–Cavite Expressway.

Route description

Muntinlupa–Cavite Expressway acts as a connector between Daang Hari and South Luzon Expressway. The expressway passes near the vicinity of New Bilibid Prisons and Southville 2A, one of the relocation areas of informal settlers who once lived beside the Philippine National Railways lines.
The expressway starts with the T-interchange with South Luzon Expressway near Susana Heights. It follows a slight curving route paralleling Magdaong Creek, which acts as a boundary between barangays Poblacion and Tunasan. It soon passes near the New Bilibid Prisons, where several access roads are rerouted with the construction of the expressway. The expressway ends at a roundabout with Daang Hari and Daang Reyna.

Technical specifications

Tolls are assessed in each direction at the toll barrier, based on class. An interoperability agreement signed by the operators of the Muntinlupa–Cavite and South Luzon Expressways was signed three days before the formal opening of the former. The result of the agreement is that motorists using the Muntinlupa–Cavite Expressway will have to pay a toll fee depending on the vehicle class in addition to the toll fee from the South Luzon Expressway and/or the Metro Manila Skyway to Susana Heights Exit. In accordance with law, all toll rates include a 12% Value-Added Tax.
