Gibain ang mrt. Super nipis pagkagawa eh lapad naman edsa.

Yung LRT-2 sa aurora makitid kalsada pero bakit malawak train.

Pag rush hour bawasan ang train stops... Remove QAve, GMA, Santolan, Either Boni or Guadalupe, and Magallanes

It depends on the location of the elevated road. It should not contribute to more traffic to a congested area.

Simplified drawing of traffic going to Makati.

The Skyway was built which increased the traffic to Makati.

Here's an analogy that explains why the Skyway is a bad idea:

Let's say you're in a queue that is moving slowly to a window at a counter. Then another line is formed next to your line. But instead of going to another window, this new line merges with your line. This slows down the movement of your line.

Your line = ground level roads to Makati
New line = Skyway

This is why the Skyway made the traffic worst.

The solution is open another window at the counter.

So in this analogy: New window = more roads in Makati.

Solution:

How to increase the road area in Makati? Since existing roads in Makati could not be widened anymore, elevated roads could be built on top of existing roads in Makati. The main roads in Makati (such as Buendia and Ayala) should have two levels. The traffic in the ground level moves in one direction and the traffic in the second level moves in the opposite direction.

In other words, the Skyway should be in Makati, not going to Makati.

They stopped paying the current contractor diba? This will further hurt the commuters. Hope they award it to the previous contractor even if the cost is significantly higher, but the red tape is shytty...

Let the private sector run the MRT.

busan is suing that they have not been paid.
govt is claiming, busan is not living up to required expectation.

as an example... govt man says busan purchased a specialized part, but could not prove provenance, as required by contract.
it seems the receipt they showed, was addressed to a shop in... evangelista! ...owned (in part?) by a person sharing the same name with someone working for the railway company.
so the question radio announcer was asking is, "was this specialized part kahoy-ed from the train, spirited out, and re-sold to busan, to be re-installed in that very-same train...? (or something like that)

masalimuot...
