Motorists that frequent Skyway Stage 3 will have a few more days to enjoy free use of the third stage of the elevated tollway. Toll collection will begin on July 12, 2021. As such, the last few days leading up to the twelfth of July will be prime time if you’re looking to squeeze out one last ride from either end of the metro without paying. It goes without saying, but take your adventure bikes out on a 60 km/h run before toll collection starts.
It’s been more than half a year since San Miguel Corporation (SMC) opened up Stage 3, and the Toll Regulatory Board (TRB) has also given the green light on the rates. Motorists should expect to pay P264 from the Buendia entry to the NLEX exit, end-to-end. Any exit between those two points will cost motorists less.

“After providing the public free use of its 18-km Skyway Stage 3 project for nearly seven months, San Miguel Corporation (SMC) will start collecting toll on the new elevated expressway starting July 12 using a revised toll fee matrix that is lower than the originally proposed toll fees, particularly for motorists traveling shorter distances.”
Earlier this year, the TRB approved toll prices lower than what SMC proposed, lower by as high as P10 per rate. The fees for Class 1 vehicles taking Stage 3 from Buendia to Sta. Mesa is P105, Ramon Magsaysay Boulevard to NLEX Balintawak is P129, and again, end-to-end from Buendia to NLEX is P264.
Larger vehicles under Class 2 and 3, will expect to pay double or triple the amount for Class 1 motorists.
“We thank the TRB for helping us determine the most equitable toll rates for our motorists. We know from experience that times are hard for many, and even a little relief for motorists can go a long way. These toll rates reflect our deferral of the collection of a substantial amount of the cost to build Skyway 3. We also further lowered the rates for those traveling shorter distances.”
