Starting March 2, 2025, the North Luzon Expressway (NLEX) will implement new toll fee adjustments across different sections of the expressway. These changes apply to both the Open System and the Closed System, as well as to the Subic-Tipo segment.
Open System (Balintawak, Caloocan, Mindanao Ave to North of Marilao):
- Class 1 vehicles: Additional ₱5.00
- Class 2 vehicles: Additional ₱13.00
- Class 3 vehicles: Additional ₱15.00
Closed System (North of Marilao to Sta. Ines, Mabalacat City):
- Class 1 vehicles: Additional ₱52.00
- Class 2 vehicles: Additional ₱129.00
- Class 3 vehicles: Additional ₱156.00
Subic-Tipo Segment:
- Class 1 vehicles: Additional ₱7.00
- Class 2 vehicles: Additional ₱18.00
- Class 3 vehicles: Additional ₱21.00
End-to-End Travel (Metro Manila to Sta. Ines, Mabalacat City):
- Class 1 vehicles: Additional ₱57.00
- Class 2 vehicles: Additional ₱142.00
- Class 3 vehicles: Additional ₱171.00
The toll adjustments are part of NLEX Corp.’s plan to recover costs and improve the quality of service. To help mitigate the effects of these increases on motorists, NLEX Corp. was authorized to collect only 50% of the initially approved 2022 toll rate adjustments during the first phase of implementation. This decision was made to help manage the impact of inflation on expressway users.
Additionally, the new toll rates include a provision to recover NLEX Corp.’s investments in the recently completed Candaba 3rd Viaduct, located within the Closed System. The Candaba 3rd Viaduct, which was opened in stages—Zone 1 on August 15, 2024, Zone 2 on October 22, 2024, and fully operational as of December 10, 2024—will now be subject to add-on toll fees.
These toll adjustments were rigorously reviewed by the Toll Regulatory Board (TRB) and approved after NLEX Corp. met all necessary procedural and regulatory requirements under the 2013 TRB Revised Rules of Procedure.
