The North Luzon Expressway (NLEX) announced on Sunday that temporary toll relief will be implemented on the northbound NLEX from Balintawak to Meycauayan following the repair of the Marilao Bridge.

Slow traffic was observed last week after a truck struck part of the bridge on Wednesday, causing severe congestion for motorists.

"In response to the call of the Department of Transportation (DOTr), NLEX Corporation will implement temporary toll relief on the northbound portion of the expressway from Balintawak to Meycauayan starting March 24, 2025," said NLEX.

"This relief will remain in effect until all four lanes of the Marilao northbound area are reopened," it added.
