Lifting of number-coding scheme in April seen

THE METROPOLITAN Manila Development Authority (MMDA) may start implementing the summertime suspension of the Unified Vehicular Volume Reduction Program (UVVRP) within the month.

MMDA Traffic Operations Center director Angelito Vergel de Dios said they were just waiting for the signatures of Metro Manila's local chief executives before they lift the UVVRP, or number-coding scheme, during the school break.

The temporary suspension of the number-coding scheme was proposed last week during the meeting of the agency's policy-making body, the Metro Manila Council.

Vergel de Dios said the proposal was based on the results of a study conducted by the MMDA's Traffic Engineering Center (TEC) in the summers of 2004 and 2005.

"The comparative study showed that there is as much as 30 percent reduction in the number of vehicles on the road during the summer months," he said in a phone interview.

The 30 percent drop was above the reduction in vehicular volume resulting from the UVVRP, which is 20 percent, Vergel de Dios said.

Let them drive

"Since less vehicles are used during these months because of the school summer break, motorists might as well enjoy driving their cars," he added.

Vergel de Dios, however, said that the program's benefits would not apply in Makati City, "where the huge volume of vehicles remains unchanged at any given time."

"Makati is a busy district with a minimal number of schools, so the summertime UVVRP suspension program would fail to work there," the MMDA official said.

Effective until June

Vergel de Dios said the program would be implemented until early June, or when the school year officially begins.

Under the UVVRP, vehicles must keep off the roads on certain days based on the last digit of their license plate numbers. These vehicles, however, can go out on the street between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m., the so-called "window hours."

Of Metro Manila's 17 cities and municipalities, 13 are implementing the UVVRP. The cities of Marikina and Pasig dropped the scheme because they are located at the edge of the metropolis. Makati and Pasay, on the other hand, implement the UVVRP without the window hours.
