    Miss ko to... Rezing-rezing pag ikaw ang nasa unahan ng stoplight... tapos haharangan ka ng mga motorbike.

    If ever, the stoplights should help fix the Eastwood area build-up. However, the bottleneck at the narrow Bagong Ilog Flyover and Kalayaan elevated U-turns (gash they should demolish that) remains.

    Since tinanggal na ang Lanuza, Vargas and Green Meadow u-turns theoretically clear path na all the way from the Green Meadows stoplight to the Lanuza stoplight

    noticed 10-15mins time savings this morning as compared to the daily grind when those improperly placed u-turns are still there. gaya nga ng mga nasabi na: madami dami na drivers eh kung maka eskwala eh kelangan swapangin ang 3 lanes tapos swapangin din yung kabilang lanes sa pagswerve palabas. coming from katipunan, i noticed the very long queue line (inner lane) going left to citibank libis. mukhang matagal nga switch ng traffic signals to green for those taking a left turn. sa tingin ko hindi magtatagal babalik na rin yung mga eskwala masters at mag swapang sa middle lanes para makapagleft turn pag berde ng signal.

    Okay naman so far. Pero bottleneck sa Libis Area. ang daming nagleleft to eastwood, 2-3 lanes na occupied. then after the stoplight may mga nakaabang pang jeep sa ped overpass. then a few meters lang stop light ulit. ang panget pa ng roads! Pansin niyo ba na palagi nasisira un road dito sa south bound ng Libis? Matindi un pagka-biyak palagi ng cement/asphalt. I think every year ata nila yan inaayos.

    Sa Katipunan naman, nilagyan nila ng stop light pero its not working yet. andun parin mga notorious U-turn slots na still causing major traffic because of the Blue Eagles' rides... Siguro solution dito Skyway haha.

    Sa Bagong ilog flyover, I think they need to build a bigger bridge, then demolish the elevated U-turn in Kalayaan and construct an interchange! yan naman talaga kailangan duon nung simula palang. Nagtipid kasi for sure, ayan tuloy karambola ang traffic.

    Pag labas ko pa lang sa village namin (Ayala Heights) BULAGA! This is the first real day where we see the traffic lights at Katipunan area in action. AND IT's BAD!!! The line stretches all the way to Tandang Sora flyover. Had no choice but to take EDSA.

    Medyo mahirap lampasan yung pila ng trucks kasi karamihan sa kanila ayaw magbigay when you need to switch lanes. Halimbawa kapag nasa innermost lane ka pero you need to turn right sa next intersection. Minsan kailangan pang babaan ng bintana at makiusap (nang pasigaw kasi hindi ka maririnig) para padaanin ka.

    For this entire week, taking C5 is like going to hell.

    But for this Friday, although I took ARodriguez instead, I'm surprised by the almost Sunday-morning traffic. I left Sumulog around 630 and reached Eastwood by 715. Was there a holiday?

    Maybe 20mins saved one way for me. Will be better when they fix the pot holes and when the drainage work is completed. I cant complain so far

    For my 12 noon call time for today's duty, i left Marikina at around 10:20am. Arrived at BGC exactly 11am! So far so good. I once in a while check the MMDA Interaksyon site and everything is light to moderate most of the time the whole afternoon.

    Coming from Masinag, simply frozen chaos. I took EA Rodriguez Ave and traveled a snails pace before taking Calle Industria, then to Eastwood where I work. That took an hour. Grrrr! Morning traffic hassle talaga.

    The routes around Eastwood was changed to accomodate the new traffic scheme. I'll try the C5 route when feasible.

How's traffic in c5 now that uturn slots have been replaced by traffic lights?
