Open to Public Motorist Skyway Alabang Extension
The Skyway project developer, Citra Metro Manila Tollways Corporation, and Skyway operator, Skyway O&M Corporation, opened to traffic the Skyway extension to Alabang at 4:00 in the afternoon on April 6, 2011.
The Stage 2 was inaugurated in the morning prior to the said opening. DOTC Secretary Jose P. de Jesus, who was designated by President Benigno Aquino III to attend the event in his stead, led the inaugural run through the new section. Joining him are Vice-President Jejomar Binay, CMMTC Chairman Jose P. Magno, Jr., CMMTC President and CEO Shadik Wahono, Indonesian Ambassador Yohanes Kristiarto Soeryo Legowo, D.M.Consunji, Inc.(DMCI) president and chief operating officer Jorge Consunji and other high-ranking government officials. A short program followed at the new Skyway Main Toll Plaza where Secretary de Jesus delivered a message from President Aquino, who had to decline from joining the Stage 2 inauguration due to previous work commitments. Meanwhile, former president Fidel V. Ramos, under whose administration the South Metro Manila Skyway Project was initiated as one of the government’s flagship infrastructure projects, also graced the Skyway inauguration.
CMMTC and its main contractor, DMCI,. began to construct Skyway Stage 2 in May 2009. By the end of March 2011, the project was substantially completed, ahead of its May 2011 official target schedule. The project’s Bicutan-Sucat section was completed and opened to traffic on December 15.
After the Skyway extension to Alabang is opened, the temporary On/Off ramps in the Bicutan area will be closed. Motorists coming from or going to SLEX can instead use the new permanent On/Off ramps across Hillsborough Subdivision while those coming from or going to Alabang will use the Alabang On/Off Ramps at South Station.
