Motorists were surprised by the closure and spent at least twice the time to traverse that stretch of SLEx.

I have realized that apart from the costs of toll and gas, more time spent on the road is causing further stress and limiting quality time with my family.Two weeks ago, I had to look for alternative routes as the third northbound lane after the Alabang viaduct was closed on Sept. 25 to give way to the construction of a 6-km extension of Skyway from Barangay Cupang to Susana Heights in Barangay Tunasan, Muntinlupa City.

One option is to take Cavitex via Aguinaldo Highway, which means a shorter route by 7 km and a cheaper toll at P24. But it comes with a price. The bus fare from my place to Gil Puyat Avenue in Pasay City is around P60. From Gil Puyat, I take a jeepney to my office. This allows me to avoid the construction and road closure just after the Alabang viaduct. Few more minutes are added to my travel time because I had to take secondary roads, but this is a better way to avoid getting stuck on the northbound lane of SLEx before the entry to Skyway.
