Incorporated in 1998, it was established in response to the call of the Philippine government for private sector partners willing to provide the capital and technical expertise needed to build the infrastructure vital to national growth. In answering the government's call, the Lopez Group, one of the oldest and most diversified business conglomerates in the Philippines , specifically took on the challenge of replacing the weather-beaten and rapidly deteriorating 30-year-old North Luzon Diversion Road with a modern expressway equipped with cutting-edge communications and traffic management systems. Four shareholders came together to put up MNTC: First Philippine Infrastructure Development Corporation (FPIDC), the infrastructure arm of the Lopez Group; Egis Projects S.A. of France, reputedly the world's biggest tollways operator; Leighton Asia Ltd. of Australia, a civil works specialist with an extensive track record in toll road construction; and Philippine National Construction Corporation (PNCC), the state-owned company that holds the franchise for the operation of the expressway.
