Government’s move to speed up the construction of the 2.6-kilometer Radial Road 10 (R10), a portion of the NLEX (North Luzon Expressway) Harbor Link project is expected to benefit the trucking industry.
The elevated road will be built over C3 road/5th avenue in Caloocan City until Radial Road 10 (R10) in Navotas City.
Rupert Bayocot, chairman of the Confederation of Truckers Association of the Philippines (CTAP), said the project will make a positive impact on trucking companies and their clients.
The NLEX Harbor Link’s completion until Navotas City is seen to advance transport logistics and facilitate efficient delivery of goods with the direct and quick access between NLEX and the Port of Manila.
“We’re glad this project is becoming a reality. Completing NLEX Harbor Link to R10 in Navotas City will be a big help to our business. The direct routes between provinces in Central and North Luzon and the CAMANAVA (Caloocan, Malabon, Navotas and Valenzuela) area will make the transport of cargo easier and faster,” said Mario Yap, president of CTAP and of the Manila North Harbor Truckers Association.
The Harbor Link will enable drivers to meet the cut-off time for delivering the products to clients and further ensure that these products arrive in good condition.
It will improve turnaround time for deliveries not only within Metro Manila but also in the northern provinces.
Via R10 in Navotas City, trucks can now access the NLEX to and from the Port Area, effectively avoiding congested city roads such as EDSA, Quezon boulevard and A. Bonifacio.
Aside from reducing travel time, major infrastructure developments like this will aid truckers in expanding its market reach and provide quality service to their clients, CTAP said.
With the project completion set in December 2018, motorists only need approximately 10 minutes going from the port to NLEX. Cargo trucks will also have 24/7 access from the ports to their respective destinations in the north and south since NLEX is not covered by truck ban
Rodrigo Franco, NLEX Corp. president and chief executive officer, said the completion of the NLEX Harbor Link is envisioned to alleviate traffic congestion in Metro Manila and help truckers and private motorists realize significant savings in vehicle operating costs.
“Travel time is cut by half as the elevated roadway will allow an average speed of 80kph and will offer better road pavement and efficient traffic management,” Franco said.
The R10 Section of the NLEX Harbor Link is the latest project to be approved under the Duterte administration’s “Build Build Build” infrastructure program.
Last month, NLEX Corp. broke ground the project near the Navotas Fishport in Dagat-Dagatan, Navotas City to mark the start of construction of the R10 section. When completed, the Harbor Link Segment 10 elevated expressway will traverse McArthur Highway in Valenzuela City, Governor Pascual Avenue in Malabon City, C3 Road/5th Avenue in Caloocan City and R10 in Navotas City.
