I suggest that we arrange the exits list be placed in a table or something like it make it less cluttered. Please do the same to the North Luzon Expressway article. - Emir214 07:42, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
can you post a new toll rates or south luzon expressways...thanks19841411
This highway, like most infrastructure in the Philippines is too little, too late, and too expensive.
It is too little in that they've had a cash flow for many decades (from tolls) but have applied none of that income to extending the road a little bit each year or each couple of years. By now it should reach Tayabas Bay.
It is too late in that it needed to be widened to three lanes at least twenty years ago.
And it is too expensive because the minimum speed (60kph) has never been delivered. They allow so many vehicles/drivers that/who are physically/genetically incapable of sustaining a minimum speed of 60 kph.
Even during the current construction, a speed of 60kph (which is very near the ideal fuel economy of most vehicles) should be 'doable'--it is 'doable' in other countries, whether in Oceania (Oz) or in N America (US, CA). Mind you, that would mean that the contractor would need to smoothen parts of the road and install temporary lane markings and lighting. But those items are in the budget anyway (unless someone cheated on international construction standards).
I mention these things because the current Wikipedia page reads too damned much like a press release by the owning/operating corporation or the GoRP. Even when the current projects are completed, they will be too little too late.

The Metro Manila Skyway must not be in this article.. the Skyway is not part of South Luzon Expressway (SLEx). also, there is a seperate article here in Wikipedia named "Metro Manila Skyway". Azurich ( talk) 23:53, 30 January 2015 (UTC)Azurich
You're right, the three paragraphs in the section "Future" don't belong in this article. (Just noticed it after editing them.) Please someone delete these sub-sections and probably move them to the Skyway article. Thank you. -- Miles2north ( talk) 21:35, 12 February 2019 (UTC)
There is no history related to the South Luzon Expressway, from its opening possibly in the 60's, extension in the mid- 70's, rehabilitation (existing, but too brief), and extension in 2010. Can someone add verifiable history, either coming from books or web sources (may be archived by the Wayback Machine or WebCitation)?-- TagaSanPedroAko ( talk) 07:14, 28 December 2015 (UTC)

The image we currently have dates to 2013. Nine years later it's now one of the biggest shopping centers in the area (along with Shell Northbound, Mamplasan). I think having a decade-old image will confuse readers, especially if they're not from the area. Can we get a newer photo? 2001:4453:5F7:6400:6CE3:F195:56EA:EE2C ( talk) 06:42, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
