Traffic scheme revived

To ease the flow of traffic during rush hours, the Pasig City local government unit revived on Thursday the implementation of its own color-coding scheme which the city suspended a few years ago.
Engineer Victor Barral, head of the Engineering Traffic and Parking Management Office, said the scheme was based on Ordinance Number 1 series of 2004 but was later set aside and never fully implemented.
Like the Unified Vehicle Reduction Program more popularly known as color-coding scheme adopted by the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority, vehicles with license plates ending in numbers 1 and 2 are not allowed on the streets on certain hours every Monday, those ending in 3-4 on Tuesday, 5-6 on Wednesday, 7-8 on Thursday and 9-0 on Friday under the Pasig ordinance.
The color coding scheme implementation is between 7 a.m. and 9 a.m. in the morning and 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. in the early evening.
This week’s violators will first be given warnings, while those who will be caught starting next week will be issued traffic citation tickets.
