The Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) is planning to extend the Ninoy Aquino International Airport Expressway (NAIAx) way to Bonifacio Global City (BGC) next year.
"We are currently planning the extension of the NAIA Expressway that will connect it to BGC," Public Works Secretary Mark Villar said during deliberations on the DPWH proposed budget for 2018.
"We are now doing, conducting the design ... We are targeting to start that by next year," he said.
To make way for the NAIAx extension, the DPWH is now working on the P458-million road widening of Lawton Ave.—or the Fort Bonifacio-Nichols Field Road.
"Once na matapos 'yung road widening, doon babagsak 'yung ramp connecting Lawton Ave. to NAIAx," Villar said.
He said the NAIAx extension will ease traffic jams along the adjacent Sales Road in Pasay City.
"The budget still hasn't been finalized as the plan is being drafted," Villar said.
The 7.7-kilometer NAIAx is an elevated highway connecting the NAIA Terminals 1, 2, and 3 to the Skyway, Manila-Cavite Expressway, and Entertainment City. — VDS, GMA News
