New Makati Manila Road Overran

**4wrider** · May 21st, 2008 02:12 PM

The newly opened four lane road straddling between Makati and Manila and connecting Del Pan and Zobel Roxas roads are now under the control and whims of nearby settlers. Not content with making the side of the concrete road an their sala, kitchen, toilet endangering their own lives and those of the motorists they now completely closed the Manila side and put up makeshift basketball courts, stores, stages etc. forcing all traffic to use the other side where only one lane is now functional due to parked jeepneys, tricycles and trucks.

To think that this much awaited infrastructure was under construction for the longest time and for how much of taxpayers money but is now quickly being overran by none income tax paying settlers who probably living rent free off other people's private properties.

Sana, ginamit na lang muna yung pera at resources para ma-relocate yung mga kawawang settlers. If only there's a political will on the part of the concerned politicians.

Was able to passby this road the other night. And yes, sayang talaga yung road as the other half (two-lanes) was totally closed to give way to basketball courts, parking and playing area. Sayang talaga kasi well lighted pa naman ung lugar sa gabi kaso yung paligid are mostly occupiedng mga squatters.

Laking tulong sana to as alternate route to/from Makati-Manila.

Dapat ayusin ito ng MMDA.

The only way to fix this is to relocate the squatters in the area. Yun lang talaga. Pugad talaga ng mga ogag ang lugar na yan.

The proverbial "rule of the mob"....

Gising gobyerno,- tax namin ang pinanggawa rito. Pero, hindi namin magamit ng maayos dahil ginagamit ng karamihan ay hindi nagbabayad ng tax.... Grabe!

Dapat sa mga yan sinusunog, sila pa may gana magalit pag papaalisin mo. Dapat dyan bagsakan ng lava para matunaw.

don2003 malamang sa Sta Ana-PRC-Pasong Tamo-Kalayaan-Zapote-Ayala rota mo. Yung kalsadang ginawang salaat laruan ay sa Del Pan - Zobel-Roxas (dating Vito Cruz) patungong Osmena Hiway o diretso sa La Salle Taft.
