Skyway toll fee holiday

Motorists using the Skyway System’s Buendia-Bicutan elevated section and its at-grade Magallanes-Alabang section, and the Alabang-Calamba section of the South Luzon Expressway will enjoy toll-free travel during the holidays.

Romerico Reganit, head of operations of PNCC Skyway Corp., said that no fees will be imposed on motorists passing said toll roads from 10 p.m. of Dec. 24 up to 6 a.m. of Dec. 25, and from 10 p.m. of Dec. 31 up to 6 a.m. of Jan. 1.

Reganit said the toll holiday has been the practice over the years to allow their toll booth personnel to spend Christmas and New Year’s Eve with their families.

South Luzon Expressway head Jose Manuel Antonio said E-Pass patrons who drive along these roads during the toll holiday period that no toll fees will be imposed in their E-Pass accounts.

The central computer and toll plaza systems will automatically perform an override function so toll fee credits will not be deducted from E-Pass accounts. — Rhodina Villanueva
