Construction crew members rush work on the concrete box culvert and junction box along the southbound portion of NLEX Balintawak, aimed at flood mitigation in the area. At a cost of P3.75 million, the project is part of the larger and already completed P119-million drainage improvement project of the Manila North Tollways Corp., which covers the northbound side of the Balintawak Cloverleaf and the southbound segment of Valenzuela. Construction works will cover four lanes of Balintawak southbound and will be completed by August 2016. MNTC president and CEO Rodrigo E. Franco explained: ‘Improving drainage systems serves the larger purpose of providing safe and convenient travel for our NLEX motorists even under inclement weather conditions.’ He further said that the Tollways Management Corp., Metro Manila Development Authority and local traffic authorities are within the vicinity of the construction site. This will assure motorists that a traffic management plan is in place even while construction work is ongoing, enforced by patrol and traffic teams.
