Three major new expressway projects will be offered under the PPP model in the Philippines. The 2570 Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) says that the projects will be worth US$1 billion. The projects being offered are the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (Naia) expressway, the Cavite-Laguna (Cala) expressway and a connector road project which will connect the South Luzon Expressway (SLEx) and the North Luzon Expressway (NLEx).The move is of note and represents a major change of direction with regard to the country's road network. Compared to Malaysia's 1,500km of expressways, the Philippines only has 286km of toll roads.
