SAN MIGUEL CORP. (SMC), through its unit SMC Infrastructure, has implemented an adjusted speed limit on the NAIA Expressway (NAIAx) to 80 kilometers per hour (kph) starting Jan. 15.

“This change will make travel on NAIAx and Skyway Stage 3 faster and more efficient for everyone… We have carefully studied this to make sure that it benefits motorists while prioritizing safety,” SMC Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Ramon S. Ang said in a media release on Tuesday. 

The speed limit at NAIAx is 60 kph. SMC said it also plans to increase the speed limit to 80 kph on straight sections of Skyway Stage 3 beginning Jan. 20. 

“These adjustments follow a comprehensive study conducted by the company’s traffic safety managers,” SMC said. 

The changes will complement the ongoing reconfiguration of exit plazas at NAIAx, Mr. Ang said, adding that this would also allow for less congestion on the expressway. 

Further, the company noted that a 60-kph speed limit will be retained on the curved sections for both expressways. 

“This is to maintain safety, as we do not want to put any motorists at risk of accidents due to miscalculation or oversteering, especially where there are sharp curves, given the limitations to the design of both the NAIAx and Skyway 3,” Mr. Ang said. — Ashley Erika O. Jose
