The Pasig River Expressway (PAREX) is a proposed expressway in Metro Manila, Philippines that will skirt the banks of the Pasig River and connect the City of Manila with the province of Rizal. The expressway is being planned to decongest traffic and to cure the pollution of the Pasig River.

Proposal

The expressway is planned as a viaduct over the Pasig River and the Laguna de Bay, and a network of bridges similar to the proposed Metro Manila Skybridge. The expressway will have three segments and 2-6 lane viaducts and bridges. The overall length of the expressway will be 19.86 km, including ramps and 15.22 km, excluding ramps.^[1]

Exits and intersections

The expressway is planned to have seven exits. The expressway will start from EDSA (or C-5 Road) and will skirt the Fort Bonifacio North Gate, before entering Rizal Province. There will be 3 segments.

Segment	Name	Kilometers	Number of Lanes
1	EDSA- Fort Bonifacio North Gate	0.896 km	2 lanes
2	Fort Bonifacio North Gate- Ortigas Avenue Extension	11.574 km	2-6 lanes
3	Ortigas Avenue Extension- C-6 Road	2.750 km	2-4 lanes

List of proposed exits

The expressway can either be an extension of Kalayaan Avenue or J.P. Rizal Avenue, both in Makati, as their routes can both be rerouted to the route of the proposed expressway. Kalayaan Avenue, however, has more important intersections and ends already near the borders of Rizal and Manila, while J.P. Rizal Avenue (R-4) already has many interchanges along its path.

Project

The expressway currently is neither approved nor paid yet, but someday, if ever it will be approved, it will cost approximately 208 million pesos. The expressway is believed to give more benefits, like the cheaper cleanup and pollution prevention to the then polluted Pasig River.
