Source of Traffic in C5 - whose guilty

[japeeps]

Everyday scenario in C5 flyover to makati...

Trucks, Private Vehicle, Taxi, Luxury Cars (lalo na!!!), UV express

it is their habit na mag merge left to inner lanes dedicated para sa papasok sa flyover... IGNORING THE YELLOW LANE
Usually ginagawa nila to para mas madali sila makapasok sa flyover since yung outer lane eh mas mabilis kesa sa lane papasok sa flyover.
Ignoring those cars na NAGIGITGIT para lang sa sarili nilang GINHAWA...

[jresperanza]

illegal merging ignoring the yellow lane ang guilty dito...

basta may merging may heavy traffic!!! hopeless na ito unless may maparusahan talaga

Pag diyaan route ko hindi na ako pumipila sa bridge lalo na sa umaga. Dun ako lagi sa rightmost lane tas sa ilalim daan ko.

Palamuti lang ang mga traffic enforcer dyan, nakapila lang sa gitna, dapat pinapaderetso nila yung nanggagaling sa kanan at huwag payagang mag merge sa kaliwa.

You have to analyze rin why do other cars and trucks do that. If all keep into two lanes only, that line will reach lagpas UP. Even if they squeeze in at the foot of the flyover or a kilometer away, the cause of the slow traffic are the trucks that are managing to climb the flyover at a very slow pace. I'm not sure if letting the trucks go under would alleviate the traffic because they are just too many of them.

actually, if we will try to ponder deeper on that, it is poor engineering design. in short, ang mga gumawa ng mga fly-over sa atin, di nag iisip. puro short term solutions. we all know tokyo has more people, more cars with the same space as the NCR. but we can't see bad traffic condition like ours. isa pa, failure din tayo sa enforcement at education ng motorist. all we can do is to grin and bear it. ang motto ng drivers sa NCR, ang mainis, talo.

Ponder deeper ka pa dyan, layo naman ng comparison mo. Mas madami sa Tokyo na trains ang gamit or bicycles. ang Car registration dun is very expensive so youll have second thoughts in getting one.

Actually, the C5 Bagong Ilog flyover is at least one lane short to handle road traffic capacity. Add to that the slow movement of vehicles after it as cars approach the Bayani U-turn flyovers and Fort exit. I actually go straight under that flyover at times... okay din naman and a little traffic management and directing vehicles under can actually help improve traffic flow IMO..

On EDSA - Shaw, notorious sa pag cut and merge ng walang pakialaman from the rightmost lane to the underpass are the GTEx vans usually... along with private cars and a handful of buses. Inutil ang MMDA to do anything about it (source of traffic is usually the Boni Ave area where buses clog the road). Again, if they can keep buses on the first two lanes of EDSA - Shaw ibabaw, excess vehicles can actually take ibabaw to go straight even during rush hours.

Sa Pasig proper ako nanggagaling sa umaga so I merge onto C5 just before the Pasig river bridge. Agree with sir Vinj, traffic backs up kilometers before C5 Bagong Ilog because of the narrow approach to the Elevated U-turns and the Fort exit. To add, masikip for 4 lanes yung bridge and yung inner 2 lanes magme-merge into one.

In the evening, opposite direction naman yung perwisyo dyan. Sumisingit at the last minute ang mga GT Express and Taxis (even private vehicles!) sa single lane pababa ng Bagong Ilog kaya nahaharangan yung paakyat ng flyover.
