This project represents more than just new infrastructure; it is a symbol of strong collaboration between our organizations, with one shared goal: to provide motorists with a safe, clean, and reliable place to rest and refuel along CALAX.” said Arlette V. Capistrano, Vice President for Communication and Stakeholder Management of CALAX.  

The new CALAX Caltex service station is expected to open by March 2026, promising to become a vital stop for travelers, logistics operators, and residents alike.
