Metro Manila (CNN Philippines, May 24, 2021) — Conglomerate San Miguel Corp. said on Monday it opened the southbound Quirino exit of the Skyway Stage 3 elevated expressway to Class-1 vehicles.
In a statement, the company said the motoring public coming from Balitantawak and Quezon Ave. can now reach Manila in 20 minutes, compared to 1.5 hours using the major streets.

"The opening of the Quirino southbound exit will greatly improve accessibility from Quezon City and Manila. With more private vehicles diverted to Skyway Stage 3 on their way back from NLEX, or coming from Quezon Ave., to Manila, traffic on our major public roads as well as on streets usually utilized as 'short cuts' or 'alternate routes', will be a thing of the past," SMC president and CEO Ramon S. Ang said in the statement.
"This will redound to relief from congestion and faster and easier commutes for many of our countrymen on our major thoroughfares," he added.
SMC, which fully funded and built 100% of the Skyway Stage 3, said the expressway now has 15 operational ramps:
