The objective of the new expressway in Calabarzon region is to decongest the main highway of Tagaytay of heavy traffic due to tourism developments in Tagaytay–Nasugbu area.[1]

History

The project was under evaluation until the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) awarded the original proponent status to Metro Pacific Tollways South Corporation (MPT South) on July 2018.[2][3][4][5][6] The construction is expected to start in the first half of 2019 and would finish by mid-2022. It will have eight major interchanges, two spur roads: Tagaytay and a couple of overpasses.[7][8][9][10]
