Yeah, that might be the reason... Hindi pa sila tapos...

dito samin sa marcos highway buti natapos na. yung isang minuto na drive papunta ng masinag market naging 15 to 20 mins dati. di lang malakas sa gas. mapapa away ka pa dahil sa makukulit na jeepney drivers.

Napaka-tanga ng nag-plan nito. Bobo pa contractor hindi man lang ayusin yung mga bato bato minsan nasa gitna na parang sa Gilmore, almost 2 months na yata. Sarap ihulog nung mga gumagawa sa hukay na ginawa nila tapos pampahina pa sa mga business establishments syempre san nga naman sila magpapark.

Hay naku! Na-aksidente ako dyan sa bandang De Castro sa Pasig dahil sa paghuhukay nila na yan.

The stretch of Mabini Street in Ermita double-parking na nga mga sasakyan, sinabayan pa ng walang katapusan na hukayan! Kalbaryo po ang dumaan diyan. In the Baclaran area as well, tagal na rin ng hukay, hukay doon.

ang pagkakaalam ko noon pag mag request ka ng service sa MWSS hihingi ka muna ng excavation permit sa cityhall. ksama dun sa permit na binayaran mo ay mga ilang sako ng cemento base dun sa huhukayin ng MWSS. After nun project, mga 2-3 wks pupunta yun contractor ng Cityhall para takpan yun hukay. Siguro sa kaso nito, malamang nagbayad din sila ng mga kaukulan mga permits sa paghuhukay, ang problema lang ay baka nagpapabid pa ang cityhall para sa contractor na magsesemento. patay tayo diyan...red tape na naman. haayy Pinas, butas butas!

Thanks to maynilad, they had to close the sucat-bicutan service road afew mos., ago and just make it one way, darn makin't hard for those going near UPS a living hell...making you pay extra toll fee, traversing pocketfull of crater sized holes...and what do they after you might ask? they just cover it like crap! now making it worse especially during rainy season...they freakin don't care! be it magkalasug-lasug under part ng auto mo! freaggin' bast*$&$!

Bako bako na kalye is the number one problem sa pagka kasira ng mga gulong at suspension ng mga sasakyan.

Ang mga kalye nayan ay Tax payers money at may budget naman bakit hindi nila ginawa ng maayos.

Kapag sinabi kong TANGA ang mga gumagawa malamang maraming magagalit dito. Kung ang excuse nila ay binulsa ang ibang pera, di gawin mo parin ng maayos kahit talong dipa lang. Kung tatanungin bakit tatatlong dipa lang instead of 15 kilometers di sabihin nilang yon lang ang nagkasya sa perang bigay, tapos sabay interview sa Media. Buking sila!

When a leak developed in front of our driveway they had to break down our pebbled driveway to access the broken pipes, but from experience kasi they just cover it up with soil. This time pinapirma namin sila na they will finish it properly and cover it with pebbles the way it originally was and that we will not have to shell out money for it.

Matigas pa rin ang ulo, it took a while, but we got it done. Still doesn't look picture perfect pero at least napwersa sila ayusin nang maigi yon.

And the main cause for the leak? Dump trucks plying our residential street as a shortcut to Novaliches. Sira na nga ang kalye, kami pa ang hindi naisama sa paglagay ng gates (for security purposes). The houses behind us are inside the "gated" compound pero balita ko may tinirang row of houses last time I was there.

The ironic part is that you trust MWSS with your water supply (or Maynilad, etc) but you can't trust them to do it right.

Sta. Mesa is no different, my in-law's place is also like that. They cemented their street, which was a good few inches higher now than it was before (nagbabaha kasi pag umuulan). Nung inaayos yon my father-in-law told us their driveway was not covered by the repair, and they would have to pay if they wanted to get it done. Ang masama pa, pababa na ngayon yung driveway nila due to the elevated road surface so doon nag-iipon ang tubig kapag umuulan...

*Shadow I think you have a point sa pagtapal ng lupa, pero ang masama doon is hindi nila sinasabi sa concerned parties kaya hindi mo alam kung iiwanan na lang nilang ganon, or babalikan pa nila para ayusin.

In fairness naman, when I was there, kapag may mga maliliit na lubak (hindi pa malakas yung ulan), after a week natapalan na kaagad ng aspalto, which was good para wala ka na iiwasang lubak sa daily commute.
