CBEX

San Miguel Corp. (SMC) is set to bag the Cavite-Batangas Expressway Project after the provincial government of Cavite said it did not receive a competitive proposal from other parties to challenge the conglomerate’s offer.

CBEX is planned to have three access or interchange points: Silang, Cavite; Tagaytay; and Nasugbu/Alfonso.

Metro Pacific Tollways (MPT)'s 50km road Cavite-Tagaytay-Batangas Expressway (CTBEX) DIFFERS from CBEX.

CTBEX will have interchanges in Silang, Pook, Aguinaldo, Amadeo, Mendez, Alfonso, Magallanes, and Nasugbu.

Recap of Events:

2018: Metro Pacific Tollways (MPT) submitted a proposal for CTBEX.

Sep-2022: San Miguel's CBEX bags Original Proponent Status from Cavite LGU.

Nov-2022: MPT says it will challenge SMC's proposal for CBEX–despite CBEX and CTBEX having overlaps.

For those looking to own a beach house, consider a decently-priced listing I have in Playa Calatagan (by LandCo, the same developer as Punta Fuego). Currently, it would take roughly 3 hours to get there from Makati. But the completion of these two highways will cut travel time considerably.
