SMC, govt break ground on Pasig River hybrid expressway project

IT'S all systems go for the much-anticipated Pasig River Expressway (Parex), touted to be the country's first green, hybrid expressway as proponent San Miguel Corp. (SMC), together with the government, broke ground recently for the 19.37-kilometer project.

The project, a P95-billion investment by SMC, will be a six-lane elevated expressway that will run along the banks of the river, from Radial Road 10 in Manila to C-6 Road or the South East Metro Manila Expressway in Taguig.
