00:05 And later, the opening of FIBA World Cup 2023 in the Philippine Arena,

00:09 which will start at the same time as the Long Holiday Weekend.

00:13 To avoid traffic congestion, some motorists have already started their journey.

00:17 Live from NLEX, we have the first news.

00:19 James Agustin. James, how are you?

00:27 Van, good morning. Some of you started your journey here at NLEX

00:32 to avoid the heavy traffic that we are expecting

00:36 for the opening of FIBA World Cup in the Philippine Arena.

00:40 Some of you are saying that they will be able to enjoy the Long Holiday Weekend

00:45 because the school will be back next week.

00:47 Oliver is on his way home from his work in Cavite.

00:54 He is taking more time to travel because he has experienced

00:58 some hours of traffic congestion in the North Luzon Expressway or NLEX.

01:02 He is also hoping that the heavy traffic will be there until the evening in NLEX

01:07 for the opening of FIBA World Cup in the Philippine Arena.

01:10 I know about FIBA World Cup. There will be traffic.

01:15 Danilo was advanced yesterday with their delivery in Valenzuela

01:19 which was scheduled for today.

01:21 It's hard to get a ticket if there's a lot of traffic in the expressway.

01:25 It's because of the traffic and the time.

01:29 The trucks are not allowed.

01:32 What time?

01:33 10 a.m. until 12 midnight.

01:36 There's a lot of traffic. Maybe a lot of people are watching.

01:40 Jericho's children will travel early in the morning.

01:43 They will also enjoy the Long Holiday Weekend,

01:46 especially because the school will be back next week.

01:48 We expect the heavy traffic to go on vacation in Zambales.

01:52 So we will leave early in the morning to avoid traffic.

01:56 MMDA will strictly monitor the roads before NLEX,

02:00 like EDSA Barintawak Northbound where the vehicles usually go.

02:04 They will implement a stop and go traffic scheme on some roads

02:08 if the convoy of delegates needs to pass.

02:11 That's why the motorists we talked to said that they will avoid the area

02:15 so that they won't be caught in the traffic.

02:17 We will avoid it so that we can earn money.

02:19 It's hard to earn money if you're caught in the traffic.

02:22 The gasoline is expensive.

02:23 Where will you travel?

02:24 Makati or Cariñaque.

02:28 If there's a lot of traffic, I will travel to other areas.

02:33 We won't earn money if we're caught in the traffic.

02:38 Meanwhile, Ivan, this is the situation here at NLEX Barintawak Tall Plaza.

02:46 The line was still there earlier in the cash lanes

02:50 but the vehicles were able to pass quickly.

02:53 In the RFID lanes, the vehicles are just passing continuously.

02:56 According to the NLEX leadership,

02:58 we haven't monitored the traffic in the Expressway's northbound lane yet

03:03 but it's expected to be heavy later in the afternoon until night.

03:07 According to the NLEX leadership,

03:09 they will add traffic marshals to be patrol crews

03:13 not only here in the Expressway's northbound lane

03:16 but also in the vicinity of the Philippine Arena,

03:19 particularly in Ciudad de Victoria Complex.

03:22 That is the first news from NLEX Barintawak Tall Plaza.

03:25 I am James Agustin for GMA Integrated News.
