SCTEX Tipo-Dinalupihan section temporarily closed on June 15, 2025
The northbound segment of the Subic-Clark-Tarlac Expressway (SCTEX) from Tipo to Dinalupihan in Bataan will be temporarily closed on Sunday, June 15, for the Ironman 70.3 Subic Bay Race.
The NLEX Corp., operator of the SCTEX, announced in a Facebook post that the closure of the Tipo to Dinalupihan section will be implemented from 12 midnight to 1 p.m. on Sunday.
To help decongest traffic, a zipper lane will be established in the Subic-bound direction for motorists heading to Tarlac and Manila.
"Please expect a high volume of traffic in the area during this date. Ensure that your Easytrip RFID account has sufficient balance and allow more time for travel," the announcement read.
Directional signs will be set up and traffic personnel will be deployed at strategic locations, the NLEX Corp. assured.
Meanwhile, the Ironman 70.3 Subic Bay Facebook page has shared traffic advisories for the Subic Bay race area during the June 11 to 15 event period.

'Not the first time': Marcos says he and his family often use MRT-3
President Ferdinand ''Bongbong'' Marcos Jr. on Friday said that he and his family often ride the MRT-3 together and that his ride last June 1 was "not the first time." ''First of all, hindi 'to first time na sumakay ako ng MRT, madalas namin gamitin 'yung MRT dahil sa traffic. Mas mabilis eh. Kami... pamilya ko, mga kaibigan ko. Hindi practical matraffic, magdadalawang oras ka hanggang Cubao,'' Marcos said in the BBM Podcast. (First of all, it was not my first time to ride the MRT. We often use the MRT because of the traffic. It's faster. I, my family, and my friends ride the MRT. The traffic is not practical, it's often two hours to get to Cubao.) He also shared that he often talks to commuters, and they told him about the usual crowded situation inside the train, adding that he personally experienced the challenge of commuting using the MRT-3. ''Naramdaman ko 'yan, minsan sumakay kami ng MRT, talagang pag nakapasok ka na, basta't 'yung kamay mo nandito, hindi mo na magagalaw 'yun. Nakadikit ka na dito. Kinakausap ko mga pasahero, 'Sir, ganyan talaga 'yan araw-araw,''' the President added. (I experienced that, one time we used the MRT and once you enter and place your hands here, you can no longer move. I often talk to passengers, and they tell me the situation is like that every day.) Marcos earlier announced the Family/Pamilya Pass 1+3 program, which was made in honor of Family Day and to celebrate Filipino families. In this program, families or barkadas of four members only need to pay for one passenger to ride the MRT-3, LRT-2 and LRT-1 every Sunday starting on June 1, 2025. Meanwhile, the Department of Transportation has announced the increased discount for all students from 20% to 50% for LRT-1, LRT-2, and MRT-3 starting Friday. —VAL, GMA Integrated News

Big-time fuel hike expected next week: P3 gasoline, P4.80 diesel
Motorists should brace for a big-time hike in pump prices next amid the Israel-Iran conflict, which is expected to have a major impact on the oil industry. The estimated ranges in upward price adjustments are as follows: Gasoline - increase of 2.50 to 3.00 Diesel - increase of 4.30 to 4.80 Kero - increase of 4.25 to 4.40 The estimates are from the Department Energy of Energy-Oil Industry Management Bureau, Assistant Director Rodela Romero, which is based on the 4-day trading in MOPS (Mean of Platts Singapore). Rodero said that the biggest factor for the possible increase is a "major oil price shock looming as the Israel-Iran conflict threatens critical global shipping passage." President Ferdinand ''Bongbong'' Marcos Jr. earlier this week said that fuel subsidies would be given amid the expected oil price hike. 'We are starting already with the assumption that the oil prices will in fact go up and I cannot see how it will not. Because the Strait of Hormuz will then be blocked if it escalates. The oil cannot come out of its sources. So the prices will certainly be affected,'' Marcos said. ''So the subsidies that we have always given, fuel subsidies, that we gave to, if you remember during the pandemic, lalong-lalong na 'yung mga napapasada, 'yung mga may hanap-buhay naman sila, binigyan nating fuel subsidies (We gave fuel subsidies to drivers during the pandemic)," he added. Fuel firms announce official price movements every Monday, to be implemented on the following day. —VAL, GMA Integrated News
