Access to the RCC- Bulacan Plant operations and properties are either through Quirino Highway from Quezon City or through the North Expressway via Sta. Maria, Bulacan. The main plant itself is about one kilometer from the National Highway. The municipality of Norzagaray is situated at the southeastern end of Bulacan bordering the Municipality of Montalban in Rizal Province. It is bounded on the north by the Municipality of Dona Remedios Trinidad, by the Municipalities of Angat and Santa Maria on the west and by the City of San Jose del Monte on the southwest.
