    that's making the most of a bad thing.

    It took me one hour for 4 kms kanina. Google maps estimated 20 mins with traffic (usually less then 15 mins lang) but then the estimate kept on getting longer. Palpak Google maps this time

    google is good for the time the info was wired to it.
    but it does tend to change, sometimes dramatically, with the passage of time.
    it all depends on the changing information wired to it real-time.

    On the contrary, its working exactly as it should, updating the information as conditions change.

    lately, during the few weeks that i northbound skyway-d at about 7-7:30 pm,
    the queue to the tollgates had been exceptionally long... i estimated a 20-30 minute queue.
    masyadong mabagal ang tollgates...

    It's like that everyday doc. The only question is how long the queue will be at the toll gate. Every ****ing day.

    last week, i went ground-level.
    i thought the travel time was pareho lang, compared to had i skyway'd.

    so how can the operator improve skyway, kaya?

    toll holiday for the month of july ang whole stretch ng coastal road. kaya pala maluwang kanina ang mga usual log jam spots.

    primary reason is to create awareness for the newly opened connecting roads that links w/ the cavitex. iyon lang iyong mga mukha ng mga usual suspects na mga
    politiko nakapaskil sa toll booths.

    The Skyway cannot handle the volume anymore.

    Yung exit ng NAIAX laging siksikan. Pinoy drivers don't care about lining up properly, mas gusto pa makipag-gitgitan from the outside lane para mauna sila.

    The Skyway Alabang entry rfid scanners are still dumb. Lalong tumagal ngayon kasi you really have to stop and wait for the scanning. Defeating the purpose of an rfid.

Traffic!
