Route Description

edit

Route 213 starts at the rotunda fronting the Subic–Clark–Tarlac Expressway in Mabalacat, at the entrance to the Clark Freeport and Special Economic Zone and heads eastward towards the intersection with Manila North Road and continues eastward towards the terminus of North Luzon Expressway in Barangay Santa Ines and goes over it towards numerous housing developments, subdivisions, and resettlement areas towards the town of Magalang and towards the junction in Barangay Dolores, where it then turns sharply north and follows the Magalang–Concepcion Road alignment. It then crosses Dolores and Sacobia Rivers and lands at the town of Concepcion in Tarlac, crosses over the Parua River just outside the town proper of Concepcion, towards the Concepcion Exit of the Subic–Clark–Tarlac Expressway. The road crosses another river canal past the expressway exit and curves to the left towards the town of Capas, then makes a sharp turn at the junction with Capas–Santa Rosa Road, enters the town proper, and finally ends at the junction with Manila North Road.
