MPT South, a subsidiary of Metro Pacific Tollways Corp. , increased its 2025 capital expenditures by 75 percent to fund the construction and upkeep of expressways.
MPT South president and general manager Raul Ignacio told reporters in a briefing the company would use the capex to fund the completion of several key segments of the Cavite-Laguna Expressway and CAVITEX C5 Link. The CAVITEX-CALAX Link, currently under construction, will integrate these two major toll roads, creating a more seamless connection for motorists.
“Despite the challenges we face in construction, such as the timely delivery of right-of-way and the recent typhoons, we are working around the clock to ensure the delivery of these vital infrastructure projects for the benefit of progress by the end of 2025,” Ignacio said.
