The Cavite–Batangas Expressway (CBEX) is a proposed 27.06-kilometer (16.81 mi),[1] controlled-access highway in the provinces of Cavite and Batangas, Philippines. It will start at the Cavite–Laguna Expressway (CALAX) in Silang before ending at a connection with the Nasugbu–Bauan Expressway (NBEX) in Nasugbu. It is a joint venture between the provincial government of Cavite and San Miguel Corporation under a public-private partnership.[2]

History

[edit]

First proposed in 2018 by Metro Pacific Tollways Corporation (MPTC), the project was known as the Cavite–Tagaytay–Batangas Expressway (CTBEX). A 50.42-kilometer (31.33 mi) toll road would have been connected between CALAX and Nasugbu, with the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) announcing it had granted the status to MPTC South, an infrastructure unit of Metro Pacific Investments Corporation (MPIC). It was supposed to be completed by 2022.[3] However, it was delisted from the PPP center in 2024.[4]

In 2022, the provincial government of Cavite has reportedly accepted San Miguel Corporation’s (SMC) proposal to build the new tollway.[5] The conglomerate headed by Ramon Ang announced in a stock exchange filing that the involved parties finalized the tollway concession agreement for the CBEX on February 7, 2023. The concession agreement granted to SMC encompasses the construction and management of the expressway for a duration of 35 years.[6]

Exits

[edit]

This entire route will be located in Calabarzon. Exits will be numbered by kilometer posts, with Rizal Park in Manila designated as kilometer zero.
