April 27th, 2018 01:31 PM #1MMDA light truck ban on EDSA
MANILA, Philippines — Light trucks will be banned along EDSA for 16 hours based on an amended regulation issued recently by the Metro Manila Council (MMC).
The MMC, composed of mayors in the metropolis, is the policy-making body of the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA).
Approved on April 11, light trucks or those used to deliver goods in supermarkets and malls will be prohibited from traversing EDSA (from Magallanes Avenue in Pasay to North Avenue in Quezon City) from 5 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily, except Sunday and holidays.
At present, light trucks are banned along EDSA from 6 a.m. to 10 a.m. and from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m.
The MMC also revised the classification of light trucks as those with capacity of 4,500 kilograms and below.
The MMDA said it would conduct a campaign to inform truck drivers about the new policy.
The truck ban was implemented last year to ease traffic congestion along EDSA and other majors thoroughfares in Metro Manila.
okay.. di na bago yan.. since ang nabago lang talaga ay yung wala ng window from 10am to 5pm...
however.. this makes it much harder for the FMCG industry to get deliveries to the retailers...
with this.. essentially 1 trip practically out na way before 5am then babalik 9pm pa? impossible na maka 2nd trip..
i am wondering how the other companies are managing on this? ano anong mga schemes, policies etc...
