    There's some construction at the Maysilo circle, so what would have been 3 wide lanes are just 2 tight ones, so if you happen to get to the Makati-Mandaluyong bridge, you'll probably see more red lights headed toward San Francisco rather than the opposite.

    Edsa would also be my choice, especially since you're coming already from BGC. Just pass the exit that leads you to the Makati City Jail, and JP Rizal so you've avoided one of the big chokepoints along Edsa (Guadalupe).

    Thats a flood control project. Notice how that place turns into a lake once everybody around the neighborhood decides to brush their teeth all at the same time? .... joke lang!

    The area floods when its raining heavy, kaya ina-ayos nila ang drainage. Then going up Martinez avenue, traffic ulit kasi palengke on both sides of the street, tapos ang dami ng tao, tricycle, jeep, bisikleta, padyak, HesusMariaSantissima.

    i remember nung nagstart yang project na yan last year, around march/april of 2013, naglagay ng mga signages na sorry daw for inconvenience at hanggang May lang naman tong project na to, blah blah blah. Aba, June 2014 na at hindi pa tapos. Baka May 2016 pa pala ibig nila sabihin? hehe. sorry sa OT

    daily route ko yan.. makati to mandaluyong.. minsan inaabot nang 1.5 hours 4 kms lang.. kaya minsan nagpapagabi na lang ako.. ikot ikot lang sa greenbelt..

    fastest way is to leave early.. wag ka papaabot nang 5pm.. pag EDSA 30 mins lang yan to Greenhills..

    avoid mo muna yung maysilo circle coming from san francisco street. pero kung coming from sgt. bumatay street ka, medyo mas maluwag na dyan

    There's an alternate route. Going down Makati Mandaluyong bridge turn left (not right). Go straight along Coronado, then left on Pantaleon, then derecho, passing by the Rockwell bridge intersection. I dont know the other street names, but ultimately you end up on the intersection of Boni and Dansalan Gardens, may hospital din yata sa corner na yun.

    Or coming from Rockwell bridge, turn right on the intersection.

    Streets are narrow, but you can get thru. Check waze.
