MCX (Muntinlupa-Cavite Expressway)

MCX (Muntinlupa-Cavite Expressway) is a 4-kilometer toll expressway connecting the South Luzon Expressway (SLEX) to Cavite province via Muntinlupa City. Opened in 2016, MCX provides a direct link from SLEX to the Cavite side of the Daang Hari road, serving the rapidly growing communities of Bacoor, Imus, and Dasmariu00f1as in Cavite.

MCX begins at the SLEX Susana Heights Exit in Muntinlupa City and connects to Daang Hari (Governor's Drive) in Bacoor, Cavite. The expressway provides a critical link between SLEX and the southern Cavite communities. Key access points include the SLEX Susana Heights interchange and the Daang Hari intersection. MCX effectively creates a SLEX-to-Cavite shortcut, bypassing the congested Alabang-Zapote Road.

MCX toll is approximately PHP 17 for Class 1 vehicles (cars), with higher rates for larger vehicles. Easytrip electronic toll collection is accepted. The toll is collected at a single barrier system, making it one of the most affordable expressways in the country.

MCX has been a catalyst for real estate development in southern Cavite and the Muntinlupa area. The expressway reduced travel time from SLEX to Daang Hari from 45-60 minutes to just 10-15 minutes. Properties in Ayala Land's Vermosa estate (along Daang Hari) and other developments in Bacoor and Imus have benefited significantly from MCX connectivity. Filinvest City in Alabang is approximately 15-20 minutes from Cavite via MCX-SLEX.

MCX is operated by Ayala Corporation through AC Infrastructure, making it the first Ayala-operated toll road. The expressway is regulated by the Toll Regulatory Board (TRB) and was constructed under a public-private partnership (PPP) framework. MCX complements CAVITEX in providing Cavite residents access to Metro Manila, and the two expressways together have transformed Cavite into one of the Philippines' most dynamic real estate markets.
