Well, this is it: The newest Cavitex-C5 Link Flyover Extension segment is finally opening this weekend after a slight delay.
Segment 3A2, which runs from Merville to Eugolio Rodriguez Avenue in Parañaque City, was supposed to open sometime in July 2022. Instead, its opening was moved to 6am on August 14—that’s this coming Sunday.
The new segment spans a total of 1.6km in length. Once the entirety of Cavitex-C5 Link is completed, travel times for motorists driving to and from Cavitex to Makati City, Taguig City, and Pasay City will be reduced by 30 to 45 minutes.

And if you haven’t heard yet, the number coding scheme now covers the morning rush hours of 7am to 10am. Just something to keep in mind starting next week.
So, do you plan on using this new extension regularly?
