CCLEX will be RFID-only by October 2022

The opening of the Cebu-Cordova Link Expressway (CCLEX) has brought delight to many Filipinos, especially to Cebuanos. Not only that it is by far the most beautiful suspension bridge in the country today, but CCLEX also brought the convenience of traveling on an expressway to many sub-400cc riders.

Starting October 1st, 2022, the management of CCLEX will be implementing a full-RFID-only system for motorists who will be driving or riding through the tollway. This means that the remaining CCLEX cash lanes will be converted into exclusive RFID lanes. CCLEX has a total of 10 toll lanes, four of which presently accepts cash to cater to motorists who have yet to get RFID tags for their vehicles.

“Our transition to full contactless toll payment is aimed at providing a more efficient expressway experience to our road users and afford them ease of travel,” said Cebu Cordova Link Expressway Corporation (CCLEC) president and GM, Allan Alfon.

With three weeks left before the rollout of CCLEX’s full electronic toll collection system, CCLEC encourages motorists who already have RFID to reload their accounts online through the MPT DriveHub, an all-in-one travel companion app.

For motorists still using cash lanes, CCLEC encourages them to switch now to RFID for a faster and seamless drive.

RFID Reloading Options

The MPT DriveHub app is available for free via Google Play Store and App Store. Motorists can install it at https://qrco.de/DriveHubPR-1 to easily track their RFID account and reload in real time via debit or credit card, Maya, and other loading services.

Linking the CCLEX RFID account to the app has also been made more convenient and easier as motorists can now scan the QR code on the RFID card to register. The OTP (One-Time-Pin) verification has also been simplified as it is now sent via text rather than email, for an easier and fast sign-up process.

Aside from the MPT DriveHub app, motorists can also install/reload their CCLEX RFID at the CCLEX Customer Service Centers at the Toll Plaza. It’s open from 6:00 AM to 9:00 PM, Monday to Saturday for the whole month of September 2022.
