New toll rate adjustments for the Manila-Cavite Expressway (CAVITEX) will take effect starting October 28, the CAVITEX announced.

On Friday evening, October 24, CAVITEX announced that the Toll Regulatory Board (TRB) had approved the adjustments, following petitions filed by joint venture partners CAVITEX Infrastructure Corporation (CIC) and the Philippine Reclamation Authority (PRA) in 2020 and 2023.

“To help ease the impact of the toll increase, CAVITEX’ “Abante Program” will be reactivated — a toll reprieve initiative allowing registered public utility vehicles (PUVs) and agri trucks to continue paying old toll rates for 90 days from implementation,” CAVITEX said.

Under the 2020 and 2023 petitions, the TRB authorizes the implementation of provisionally approved toll rates to support ongoing upgrades and maintenance activities.

CAVITEX R1 Portion (Seaside to Zapote) – VAT-inclusive rates effective October 28, 2025:

• Class 1: ₱39
• Class 2: ₱78
• Class 3: ₱117

CAVITEX R1 Extension Segment 4 (Zapote to Kawit):

To moderate the impact on motorists, the rate adjustment will be implemented in two tranches (2025 and 2026). First tranche rates are as follows:

• Class 1: ₱88
• Class 2: ₱176
• Class 3: ₱264

CAVITEX C5 Link Segment 2 (Dr. A. Santos to CAVITEX) – the new VAT-inclusive rates are as follows:

• Class 1: ₱38
• Class 2: ₱76
• Class 3: ₱114

Moreover, due to the adjustment at the CAVITEX R1 portion, the toll rate at the Sucat Interchange will be adjusted accordingly.
