Take C4 road - R10 - Roxas Blvd - left turn to Kalaw to get to Taft or left turn ka kung saan sa Taft malapit - un, pfaura, quirino, buendia

Iwasan mo lang yang R10 route during 3PM labasan ng truck..
Pag ganito no choice ka kasi ginagawa ung tulay sa Northbay, its either Monumento Rizal Ave ka or A.Bonifacio-Sampaloc-Quiapo route

What part of malabon are you from?

Well I'm from Gov. Pascual Ave. area, so I make that as the starting point.

Go to Monumento Circle--->Rizal Ave Ext.--->Jose Abad Santos--->Left into Yuseco-->Straight until SM San Lazaro-->Right to A.Mendoza and Quezon Blvd--->Pass Quiapo Church, go up the Ayala bridge (visible steel frame) and down which snakes up until you reach Manila City Hall where you will see an underpass, LAGUSNILAD. Now I dont know which part of Taft you are going but this underpass leads you into Taft.

*12vdc - Sir what time po ba ang labasan ng mga trucks? I'm from Buendia going to Malabon, near St. James Academy and vice versa po. Is it safe to traverse roxas blvd -> bonifacio dr -> delpan -> c3 -> dagatdagatan ave. to get to malabon city square? Derederecho lang po ba ang daan dito?

*number001 - Sir from St. James Academy going to Buendia and vice versa po.. What I do sometimes is I turn right to bambang and go straight to binondo.

TIA!

Don't go in Binondo on weekdays bec. of the traffic. Weekends ok bec. it is a ghost town there.

mas madali route ni sir 12vdc kung sa st. james ang punta mo.

maglock ka lang mabuti. kung pickup dala mo iwasan mag iwan ng gamit sa bed (kung open). madaming unggoy na tatalon sa likod mo

Sedan lang naman yung car ko hehehe.. I already saw the way in google maps, although it's quite simple, I'm not familiar with the overpasses, flyovers and the likes. Derederecho lang po ba yun hanggng C4 -> Malabon City Square? Hindi naman po ba ako maliligaw?

**JJGF** · March 28th, 2011 03:19 PM

flyover lang ng delpan ang madadaanan mo, sa taas ka.

dirediretso lang yan simula roxas blvd.. -> delpan bridge/flyover -> tawid stoplight ng morriones saka tayuman -> may makikita ka "2 go" -> smokey mountain -> sm hypermarket -> may bridge uli (navotas)-> diretso lang hanggang sa stoplight na may footbrige

yan na yung malabon city square sa left side

basta ingat sa mga batang biglang tumatawid

saka huwag kang hihinto kahit ma-flat ka hehe

That's what I always hear.. yung mga batang bgla na lang daw tumatawid.. this really freaks me out lol. Do you have firsthand experience regarding this sir? How will I avoid it? If I drive too slow, the cars behind might get mad at me!

wala pa naman akong naexperience na hindi maganda pero yung driver namin dati madaming kwento lalo na kapag naflat ka sa may pier area, imbes na tulungan ka iba ang mangyayari.

pero yung mga unggoy na umaakyat sa likuran ng sasakyan ilang beses na lalo na kapag pickup, delivery truck ang dala namin

sa gabi lang naman

walang paki ang mga traffic aid at police kaya ingat lang talaga..

kung gusto mo ng safe na daan, yung kay sir number001

basta ingat ka pa din sa intersection ng MCS na yan, pwede ka magdala ng videocam para ishare dito sa tsikot ang mga nangyayari diyan pagtungtong ng gabi
