MABALACAT CITY -- The North Luzon Expressway (NLEx) Corporation has announced the closure of the Bocaue Interchange southbound exit, the fourth (for wide vehicles) exit lane used by heavy trucks from July 2 to 15, 2018.
The corporation said the temporary exit lane closure will allow the repaving works to be fast tracked.
Aside from this, NLEx also assured that the trucking sector customers will continue to enjoy the high standard of service provided by the expressway operator.
With the temporary closure of the wide vehicles exit lane, traffic inconvenience in that strategic NLEx junction in Bulacan is expected.
Truckers and other commercial vehicles that use the southbound truck exit lane are advised to find alternate routes since the other exit lanes cannot accommodate wide vehicles
All the other Bocaue southbound exit lanes will remain open.
Meanwhile, to minimize inconvenience of motorists along the Bocaue Interchange, night time asphalting and deep patching works will continue to be implemented from 10 p.m. to 4 a.m. in the entry and exit ramps (both northbound and southbound) on the following dates: northbound exit (June 25 to July 1), northbound entry (July 2 to 8), southbound entry (July 2 to 15), southbound exit ramp (July 16 to 26).
While travel delays are expected, NLEx Corporation assures motorists that efforts will be done to minimize traffic disruption and complete the works ahead of schedule.
For the entire repair duration, the tollway company will assign traffic personnel to manage the flow of vehicles.
Road signs and other warning devices will be also installed to guide motorists.
