How's traffic in c5 now that uturn slots have been replaced by traffic lights?

It was normal traffic yesterday (Monday) as well as this Tuesday morning. Maybe I'm still lucky or perhaps it didn't rain. The recent C5 smashup & snarls are soaked in rain.

Still can't go to C5 as the traffic is already saturated up to SM Marikina. So its still Rodriguez route for me. The only chance for me to head to C5 on a normal working day is when school is out.

I noticed also that the intersection beside the Eastwood PD has clogged the traffic well into the vicinity of the JPII chapel in Eastwood.

It actually goes beyond that. The queue stretches all the way to the White Plains/Boni intersection. One lane na lang on the left ang bukas for the vehicles going to the tunnel. Minsan sarado pa dahil may kups na sisingit. Got stuck there again this morning pero it wasn't as bad as yesterday's 20 mins.

The ultimate test has yet to come, a rainy Monday morning rush hour....

Passed by C5 three nights in a row now, between 11pm-3am. Ngayon ko lang napansin how much the volume of trucks really are even at this time.

The truck lane is very effective, hopefully it's not a ningas kugon thing.

may tumirik daw truck sa bagong ilog flyover.. kaya pala..

Stalled truck at Bagong Ilog Flyover. It's always been trucks with mechanical failures causing accidents or bottlenecks causing horrendous traffic at C5. Kung hindi rin lang marunong mag-maintain ang mga may-ari ng trak dapat ituloy na lang yung proposal ng LTFRB na i-phaseout yung over 15 years. old.

Kaya pala. Umalis ako bahay 6:45. Umabot na hanggang Petron Diego Silang ang pila. U-turn ako puntang service road then nag Fort na lang to EDSA.

EDSA naman gapang from White Plains to Santolan. Di na gumagalaw ang Santolan ilalim kaya apektado ang papuntang Cubao.

Long day.
