From its northern terminus in [[Tarlac City]] to its southern terminus at Tipo in [[Dinalupihan]], Bataan, the SCTEX serves as one of the main expressways in Luzon. The expressway is also connected to the [[Central Luzon Link Expressway]], [[North Luzon Expressway]], [[Tarlac–Pangasinan–La Union Expressway]], and the [[Subic Freeport Expressway]]. The SCTEX is the country's longest expressway at {{convert|93.77|km|sp=us}} until the completion of Toll Road 4 of [[South Luzon Expressway]] (SLEX). The Subic–Clark–Tarlac Expressway was constructed to provide a more efficient transport corridor between [[Subic Bay Freeport]], [[Clark Freeport and Special Economic Zone|Clark]], and the Central Techno Park in Tarlac, foster development on the municipalities served, and connect major infrastructures such as the Subic Seaport and [[Clark International Airport]].

Built by the [[Bases Conversion and Development Authority]] (BCDA), a [[government-owned and controlled corporation]], construction of the expressway started in 2005. Commercial operations then started on April 28, 2008, with the opening of the Subic–Clark Segment and Zone A of the portion of Clark-Tarlac Segment. The opening of Zones B and C of the remaining Clark–Tarlac Segment on July 25, 2008, signaled the full operations of SCTEX.<ref>{{cite web|title=SCTEX|url=http://www.bcda.gov.ph/sctex|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130729063721/http://bcda.gov.ph/sctex|archive-date=July 29, 2013|access-date=May 15, 2013}}</ref>

The Subic–Clark–Tarlac Expressway (SCTEX) runs northwest from [[Bataan]] and runs through the provinces of [[Pampanga]] and [[Tarlac]]. The entirety of the SCTEX is built as a four-lane expressway mostly laid out on [[Embankment (earthworks)|embankment]], with some sections using [[Cut (earthworks)|cuts]] to traverse hilly areas. The expressway also crosses the four rivers in [[Central Luzon]]: the Dinalupihan River in [[Bataan]], the Gumain River in [[Floridablanca, Pampanga|Floridablanca]] and the Pasig–Potrero River in [[Porac, Pampanga|Porac]], both in [[Pampanga]], and the Sacobia River in [[Bamban, Tarlac]]. All exits require toll payment, and toll plazas are laid on the termini of the expressway.

SCTEX starts at Tipo Interchange, its intersection with the [[Subic Freeport Expressway]] (SFEX) in [[Dinalupihan]], near Barangay Tipo in [[Hermosa, Bataan]]. The expressway initially traverses the [[Roosevelt Protected Landscape]] and is built parallel to the [[Jose Abad Santos Avenue]] (N3) until Dinalupihan Exit, where the expressway curves northward and tracks the Angeles-Porac-Floridablanca-Dinalupihan Road as it follows a mostly straight route. The expressway then curves to the northeast before Floridablanca Exit. It curves toward the northwest and back to the northeast before Porac Exit. It then curves eastward and then northward near Clark Freeport and [[Clark International Airport]]. Clark South Exit, which serves those areas, lies near Mabalacat Interchange, with the exits being {{convert|1|km|sp=us|spell=in}} apart from each other. The segment ends at the Clark Logistics interchange in Mabalacat, where it meets the Clark Spur Road that links SCTEX with [[North Luzon Expressway]] (NLEX) and crosses over [[MacArthur Highway]] (N2).

Past the Clark Logistics interchange, its main destination changes to [[Tarlac City]] and [[Baguio]]. The roadway runs at the boundary of Clark Freeport and Mabalacat city proper, where the [[Philippine National Railways]] (PNR) [[PNR North Main Line|North Main Line]] to [[Dagupan]] and [[San Fernando, La Union|San Fernando]], [[La Union]] also lies. MacArthur Highway parallels the expressway up to Tarlac City.

Leaving Clark Freeport, Clark North Exit comes before the expressway, where it curves and then crosses MacArthur Highway at Barangay Dolores, where a half-partial cloverleaf interchange, serving only northbound traffic, connects the two. Approaching Tarlac, the expressway bridges over the Sacobia River. The first service areas on the expressway, one serving northbound and one for southbound traffic and separated by one kilometer, come before Concepcion Exit. The expressway passes near the [[poblacion]] of Concepcion, then over agricultural land of [[Tarlac City]]. Hacienda Luisita Exit comes before the northern end of the expressway, and serves [[Hacienda Luisita]] as well as connecting MacArthur Highway and serving barangays along its connecting road. A new toll plaza built on the main route serves the final Tarlac City Exit. The exit serves an interchange with the [[Central Luzon Link Expressway]] (CLLEX). Past Tarlac City Exit, SCTEX becomes [[Tarlac–Pangasinan–La Union Expressway]] (TPLEX) northward.

The original project for the expressway was divided into two segments: the {{convert|50.5|km|sp=us|adj=on}} Subic-Clark segment and the {{convert|43.27|km|sp=us|adj=on}} Clark-Tarlac segment. The contractors were a [[joint venture]] of [[Kajima]], [[Obayashi Corporation|Obayashi]], [[JFE Holdings|JFE Engineering]], and [[Mitsubishi Heavy Industries]] for the Subic-Clark segment, and a joint venture of Hazama, [[Taisei Corporation|Taisei]], and [[Nippon Steel]] for the Clark-Tarlac segment. Consultation was provided by a joint venture of Oriental Consultant, Katahira & Engineering International, and [[Nippon Koei]].

The total cost for the construction of the expressway was {{Philippine peso|34.957 billion}}. It was sourced through a loan of {{JPY|41.93 billion|link=yes}} or {{Philippine peso|23.06 billion}} from the [[Japan Bank for International Cooperation]] (JBIC), with an annual interest rate of 0.95%.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://newsinfo.inquirer.net/inquirerheadlines/regions/view_article.php?article_id=85241|title=SCTEx delay worsens as Japan firm seeks new extension|newspaper=Philippine Daily Inquirer}} {{Dead link|date=June 2018|bot=InternetArchiveBot|fix-attempted=no}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=http://newsinfo.inquirer.net/inquirerheadlines/regions/view_article.php?article_id=81199|title=BCDA, Japanese contractor asked to explain SCTEx delay|newspaper=Philippine Daily Inquirer}} {{Dead link|date=June 2018|bot=InternetArchiveBot|fix-attempted=no}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=http://newsinfo.inquirer.net/inquirerheadlines/regions/view_article.php?article_id=76127|title=Arroyo adviser says SCTEx extension OKd|newspaper=Philippine Daily Inquirer}} {{Dead link|date=June 2018|bot=InternetArchiveBot|fix-attempted=no}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=http://newsinfo.inquirer.net/inquirerheadlines/regions/view_article.php?article_id=101211|title=Arroyo order: Open SCTEx, interchanges on time|newspaper=Philippine Daily Inquirer|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080222100621/http://newsinfo.inquirer.net/inquirerheadlines/regions/view_article.php?article_id=101211|archive-date=February 22, 2008}}</ref> ₱25.737 billion of the total project cost represented direct costs such as expenses incurred for the construction of the SCTEX.

Toll Fees were approved by the [[Toll Regulatory Board]] (TRB).<ref>{{cite news|title=It's P27.2 billion for SCTEX, in total|newspaper=Philippine Daily Inquirer|url=http://opinion.inquirer.net/inquireropinion/letterstotheeditor/view/20080421-131653/Its-P272-billion-for-SCTEX-in-total|url-status=dead|access-date=April 21, 2008|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110722142121/http://opinion.inquirer.net/inquireropinion/letterstotheeditor/view/20080421-131653/Its-P272-billion-for-SCTEX-in-total|archive-date=July 22, 2011}}</ref>

On March 18, 2008, at exactly 1 p.m., President [[Gloria Macapagal Arroyo]] opened the [[Subic Bay Freeport Zone|Subic]]–[[Clark Special Economic Zone|Clark]] segment of the expressway for a [[Holy Week]] trial run. This helped motorists traveling to [[Zambales]] and [[Bataan]] for Holy Week. The trial run was free, and available for class 1 vehicles only. It ran on March 18 from 1&nbsp;p.m. to 5:30&nbsp;p.m., and March 19 to 24, 5:30&nbsp;a.m. to 5:30&nbsp;p.m.; operating hours were limited as no [[street lights]] had been installed.

On April 28, 2008, at exactly 12 noon, BCDA opened the Subic–Clark segment to all vehicles. BCDA said that travel from [[Manila]] to [[Subic Bay Freeport Zone|Subic]] via [[North Luzon Expressway]] would now take only 1 hour and 40 minutes, and travel from [[Clark Special Economic Zone|Clark]] to [[Subic Bay Freeport Zone|Subic]] would take 40 minutes. The Dolores exit (formerly Clark North A exit) was also opened, which connects to MacArthur Highway.

On July 25, 2008, the BCDA announced the opening of the Clark–Tarlac segment of the expressway. Travel time from Clark to Tarlac was reduced to only 25 minutes, and to travel the entire length of the SCTEX would take about 1 hour. Travel from [[Manila]] to [[Tarlac City]] via [[North Luzon Expressway|NLEx]] and the SCTEX would take 1 hour and 25 minutes.

In 2015, the BCDA awarded the operations and maintenance contract for the expressway to the Manila North Tollways Corporation (MNTC, now [[NLEX Corporation]]). MNTC took over the management of the toll road on October 27.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2015-10-27 |title=MNTC takes over SCTEx |url=https://www.philstar.com/business/2015/10/27/1515484/mntc-takes-over-sctex |access-date=2024-05-17 |website=www.philstar.com |language=en-US}}</ref> The seamless integration, which replaced the old tolling system — the old toll plazas were demolished — was completed in March 2016 to merge the two expressways into one system.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Pilapil |first=John Kevin D. |date=2016-03-18 |title=NLEx, SCTEx fully integrated |url=https://www.sunstar.com.ph/more-articles/nlex-sctex-fully-integrated |access-date=2024-05-17 |website=SunStar Publishing Inc. |language=en}}</ref>

== Operations and maintenance ==
The expressway is part of the [[Bases Conversion and Development Authority|Bases Conversion and Development Authority's]] Subic–Clark–Tarlac Expressway Project or SCTEP, which aims to connect the economic zones of Subic and Clark. The joint venture of First Philippine Infrastructure Development Corporation (FPIDC), Tollways Management Corporation, and Egis Projects — the same concessionaires of the [[North Luzon Expressway]] — would handle all the operations and maintenance of the expressway. The First Philippine Infrastructure Development Corporation is a subsidiary of First Philippine Holdings, a holding company under the Lopez Group of Companies with core investments in power and tollways, and strategic initiatives in property and manufacturing. The FPIDC was eventually sold to [[Metro Pacific Investments Corporation]] in 2008.

The SCTEX business and operating agreement was signed July 25, 2011 between the BCDA and the Manila North Tollways Corporation (MNTC), and its holding companies Metro Pacific Tollways Corporation (MPTC) and Metro Pacific Investments Corporation (MPIC).  Under the agreement, MNTC will operate and manage SCTEX for 33 years, while relieving BCDA of the heavy financial burden of paying the ₱34-billion debt to the [[Japan International Cooperation Agency]] (JICA). By virtue of the Agreement, the SCTEX can be considered as having been built at no cost to Government.

The toll system of Subic–Clark–Tarlac Expressway started out as a [[ticket system|closed road]] system using cards with [[magnetic stripe card|magnetic strip]]s. In March 2016, electronic toll collection was initiated, using an 'Easytrip' system by [[NLEX Corporation|Manila North Tollways Corporation]] and consolidating the toll system with that of the [[North Luzon Expressway]]. Before consolidation, the toll systems were completely independent, with toll collection at a toll plaza on Clark Spur Road in Mabalacat, until the structure's demolition following the toll systems' integration.

In March 2016, the integration of the [[North Luzon Expressway]] and the SCTEX was completed, in time for the [[Holy Week]] exodus. Among the integration plans which costed {{Philippine peso|650 million|link=yes}} are the reduction of toll collection stops, construction of additional toll plazas and the conversion of the electronic toll collection of the two expressways into a single system.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.philstar.com/headlines/2016/03/19/1564423/nlex-sctex-integrated-eases-northbound-travel|title=NLEX, SCTEX integrated, eases northbound travel|work=The Philippine Star|last=Lazaro|first=Ramon Efren|date=March 19, 2016|access-date=March 22, 2016}}</ref>

With the government's push towards toll road interoperability, the Autosweep payment system from the [[San Miguel Corporation]], which operates SLEX, Skyway, STAR Tollway, NAIAX, and TPLEX, has been accepted for SCTEX tolls since March 2018.<ref name="InteroperabilitywithRFID-carguide">{{cite web|url=https://www.carguide.ph/2018/03/dotr-rfids-can-now-be-used-on-nlex-sctex.html|title=DOTr: Autosweep (SLEX) RFIDs Can Now Be Used on NLEX, SCTEX (w/ Step-by-Step Guide)|website=CarGuide.ph|date=March 20, 2018|access-date=May 4, 2021}}</ref>
