Dangerous pot-hole along C.P. Garcia (U.P)

[logan032077]

Hi Tsikoteers,
I already had two incidents wherein my tires and rim were completely damage by passing along C.P. Garcia from U.P going to C5.

Sept 8, around 9:20pm(medyo umuulan)
Grabe, nung una, akala ko lubak lang.dug!!ang lakas!!, after several seconds nung nakaliko na ako papuntang c5, ayun, flat tire, ni-running flat ko, para makapunta sa shell station(20 meter away). then nagulat ako, there are also vehicle na nakaparada, if i'm not mistaken 2-3 vehicle ang flat.
kwento nila: same thing happend sa akin. na-pothole!!!OMG.
Dinala ko sa malapit na vulcanizing shop. and found out na, ang laki ng damage, sa gilid ng tire. tinamaan yata ang ply. pero nagawan ng paraan. then OK na. it cost 350 pesos para sa vulcanizing and 100 for the trycyle.
sakit naman nun.hayy!!


Sept 9, around 9:00pm(basa kalsada pero di na umuulan):
napaka-stupid ko talaga, dumaan ako ulit doon at nawala sa isip. another dug!!ang lakas!! omg. flat ulit. tanggal gulong then nung dalhin sa vulcanizing we found out na nayupi ang rim(buti di ako naka mags,pero kahit na)

pinapukpuk ko. omg, another 300.tsk tsk, then sabi nung nagvuvulcanize na kaalis lang daw nung isang sasakayan na nasira yung mags nya sa pothole din. pinaayos daw niya at umabot 1k,plus bili ng bagong gulong.tsk tsk.parang gusto ko barilin(kaso wala naman baril me) yung may gawa nung pothole na yung kung sinadya man. kung di man sinadya wala man lang magreport para ayusin ang perwisyongpothole.

I'm warning you all guys na ingat pag dumadaan kayo dun.coz yung pothole ay mahirap mapansin sa gabi, tapos may tubig pa.nasa leftside, malapit sa gitnang guhit. so yung mga gulong mo sa kaliwa ang tatamaan pag papunta ka c-5 galing U.P.


That's all, ingat lang.mahal ang mga mags.

Papuntang C5 or papuntang Katipunan Avenue? San exactly sa CP Garcia?

ooops sorry. C.P. garcia papunta katipunan pala, kung galing ka U.P. papuntang ateneo, mga 100 meter before lumiko.

malapit yan siguro sa Math building (left) and yung Ayala building (right) before mag-right turn to katipunan.

makes me wonder, baka pakana yun ng taga-vulcanizing shop malapit diyan. maraming squatter sa area na yan. ingat nalang tayo.

thanks sa warning. may isa pang malupit na lubak going the same direction. along katipunan naman tapat ng b. gonzales st. and the u-turn slot. gitnang gitna ng kalye. right now grabe makacause ng traffic. don't know lang kung may nasiraan na ng gulong or suspension dun.

rain + substandard materials = gigantic and dangerous potholes. what aggravates it more is the sloooooow response ng dpwh or local gov't (or kung sino man dapat in charge). yung sa katipunan parang naka 1 week na. impossible namang hindi napansin ng mmda kasi lagi silang may tao dun. poor communication din between agencies.

I passed by those roads last Saturday afternoon, pero hindi ko matandaan na nakita ko ang mga grabeng lubak na iyan..... Baka sinuwerte lang ako na na-miss sila ng gulong ng aking sasakyan... Anyway, thanks for the warning bro.,- I will be on the lookout next time....

My fiancee lives in that area, and I don't recall seeing a major pot hole along CP Garcia.. I'll still keep an eye out for it thanks TS. :-)

[Reepicheep]

Meron ding malalim na pothole across Mag:net ingat na lang

[oliver1013]

Aba oo nga alam ko to, na syut nako dito buti nalang di na flat, isang matinding mura ang luamabas sa bibig ko kaya naalala ko to..langya ang yaman ng QC di nila mapagawa to..

[Horsepower]

Thanks for the warning. I don't really remember seeing a pothole along CPGarcia even though I pass by this road often. Bagong gawa siguro.

[morrissey_05]

spotted those potholes. there's another one. if i remember right, its just after you pass the krus na ligas area. malalaki nga.

[noobskie]

Funny thought, baka ginawa yang pothole na yan nung mga taga vulcanizing para dumami customers nila. Mahina siguro kita ngayon kaya idea raw. Kidding aside, ever wondered why it takes so long to repair potholes eh madalas tatapalan na lamang ng aspalto yan.

[XTO]

Passed there last week na umuulan at gabi, mabuti't hindi naman ako na-swak. Di ko kabisado mga streets na naka cross dyan basta alam ko lang winding sya at ang labas lang niya is katipunan na

Pa post naman ng mapa kung saan banda yang butas na yan para makailag namat tayo ng maaga-aga

[coiter]

dumaan ako kanina ng katipunan. yung lubak sa tapat ng b. gonzales ok na. pero as usual, sablay yung pagtapal. para na syang may maliit na hump na aspalto hehehe

[woohoo]

:hammer: Baka ang gumawa niyan ay iyung gumagawa rin ng mga daan sa subdivision namin! :rant:

[testament11]

thanks sa info sir! may times pa naman na nadaan ako dyan...

[morrissey_05]

just passed there last night.

the pothole just after krus na ligas (B Gonzales?) ay may laman na pero di ko sinubukan daanan.

the big pothole just before katips (right after Math Bldg ata yun) is still there.

ingat ingat. mag-ilaw ng malakas ng onti para maispatan nyo yng mga butas.

[MaxAJ]

from south super highway entering magallanes dami tabi pa ng starbucks yun.. MMDA DPWH should over haul their system and update it. their system is faulty. The President should be held resposible lol

[lazyfoot]

I'm assuming you're referring to the 2 open canals on the right side of the road. yeah I always keep that in mind coz i love using the rightmost lane of CP Garcia since it is usually the faster lane.

TS is here, i have been monitoring the progress, so far, natapalan na yung butas. kung open pa ito, I might not have a 2nd thought to stop for a while(with hazard) and capture it on my phone cam.

Anyway. meron din malaking butas, along the interserction of C.P. garcia cor UP main road(di ako familiar sa name, traffic light pakaliwa na papuntang commonwealth)-sinlaki ng palanggana!!!ay naku.buti ka mo, nasa intersection.

I think any speed more than 10km/hr will damage your tires or suspensions.
