The North Luzon Expressway (NLEX) is all set for the celebration of the Iglesia Ni Cristo Centennial Anniversary on July 27. The Tollways Management Corporation (TMC), operator of NLEX is expecting attendees to arrive at the Philippine Arena in the evening of July 25.

To manage the volume of vehicles, additional toll personnel will be deployed in the affected plazas. Additional Traffic management and Security personnel will be deployed at strategic areas including the Philippine Arena compound and at the interchanges critical to the event.

There are designated u-turn slots for the attendees as well. Delegates coming from the North going to the Philippine Arena will turn at the Smart Connect Interchange (Mindanao Avenue Link Interchange). Those leaving the Philipine Arena and are Manila-bound will turn at the Tabang or Balagtas Interchanges at the designated U-turn slots just after the Toll Plaza exits.

Parking of vehicles will be at the local roads near the Philippine Arena vicinity. Critical areas at NLEX especially from Meycauayan to Bocaue northbound will be declared as a tow-away zone during the event so as not to impede the traffic flow for our motorists.

Likewise, to ensure the smooth traffic flow in the area and in the nearby communities, NLEX management has been closely coordinating with the Metro Manila Development Authority (MMDA) and the Philippine National Police (PNP).

Road works in NLEX have been suspended since July 16 in preparation for the event unless safety repair is required. Road works and maintenance will resume on August 4, 2014.

Motorists are advised to plan their trips ahead of time for this period.
