The C-5 Southlink Expressway, signed as E2 of the Philippine expressway network,[3][4] is a 7.708-kilometer (4.790 mi) controlled-access toll expressway in Metro Manila connecting the Manila-Cavite Expressway (CAVITEX) to the Circumferential Road 5 (C-5) in Taguig. The project is being built at the cost of ₱15 billion,[6] and is a joint project of the Philippine Reclamation Authority, Toll Regulatory Board, and Cavitex Infrastructure Corporation, a subsidiary of Metro Pacific Investments Corporation. Currently operational between Taguig and near E. Rodriguez Avenue in Parañaque only, its remaining segment up to CAVITEX is currently under construction.
Route description
C-5 Southlink Expressway starts at Carlos P. Garcia Avenue (C-5) in Taguig near its interchange with South Luzon Expressway (SLEX). It then ascends as the existing flyover that crosses Skyway, the PNR Metro Commuter Line, SLEX and the at-grade expressway's service roads before descending along C-5 Extension, which serves as its frontage roads, in Pasay. It then continues its course south of Ninoy Aquino International Airport until it meets its current terminus at C-5 Road Extension in Parañaque, near a Shell station. Unlike most expressways in the Philippine expressway network, the maximum speed on its existing section is 60 kilometers per hour (37 mph).[7]
The expressway's section towards Manila-Cavite Expressway (CAVITEX) is currently under construction. It will continue its course south of the airport. It will then pass by Amvel City, where an interchange towards Sucat Road and a toll plaza will be located. It will end at a trumpet interchange with CAVITEX near the latter's Parañaque toll plaza.
