Transcript
00:00 Aside from the Edsa Camoning flyover, the Magallanes flyover and Guadalupe and Lambingan bridge were also completed.
00:08 The operation of malls is also being studied to reduce the increase of traffic in Metro Manila.
00:14 Joseph Moro is a witness.
00:16 The Metro Manila Council is studying the adjustment of mall hours just like what is usually done during the holiday season.
00:26 According to MMC Chairman and San Juan Mayor Francis Zamora, they have received suggestions to adjust mall hours
00:33 due to the heavy traffic in the areas around the malls.
00:36 Based on their monitoring, it is possible that the increase of motorists on different roads in Metro Manila
00:42 is due to those who went to the mall to cool down the heat.
00:46 To be able to breathe a little, we need to be free.
00:49 And one coffee, P30 is enough.
00:53 Later, we will go home.
00:55 I feel that almost all people are cooling down in the malls this summer due to the heat.
01:00 This is one thing that we will study.
01:04 Many are suggesting to push the mall hours to a later time,
01:10 just like what the Metro Manila Council is doing during Christmas.
01:14 What is the purpose of this during Christmas?
01:17 We are doing this so that people who go to the mall and those who go home will not rush their hours.
01:28 The clearing operation of MMDA continues to remove the obstacles on the road.
01:33 In Quezon City, people are cleaning the roads and the cars parked in the Scout Quadrilla that the operatives arrived.
01:40 This is the cause of the traffic.
01:43 If there is food, it is parked there.
01:46 If there is no store here, there is no place to park.
01:50 We are waiting in the middle of the road.
01:52 In the middle of the road, that is the road. It is big.
01:54 The drivers of these cars were already there and the ticket that was given by MMDA was thrown away.
02:00 But because it was already ticketed, they were allowed to leave.
02:03 If he is cleaning his car and he did not remove it, he will not get his license.
02:07 In total, 17 motorists were ticketed and 5 cars were towed.
02:12 According to the DPWH-NCR, they will try to finish this Elsa Camaning flyover earlier so that the traffic will be more spacious.
02:21 Because they have two more roads that they have to complete before the year ends.
02:26 In Elsa, there are two more to be added.
02:29 The Magallanes flyover in Makati-Pasay border and Guadalupe bridge between Makati and Mandaluyong.
02:35 The Lambingan bridge in Manila will also be completed.
02:38 According to the DPWH-NCR, the middle lane and the southbound road of Magallanes flyover will be completed next week.
02:47 More than 160,000 people are passing through the flyover from 6am to 8pm.
02:53 But the flyover will not be closed immediately.
02:56 If we are already a little bit spacious here in Camaning, we will close it.
03:01 Because it would take around 6 months to close it.
03:04 But there are two lanes that will be opened tomorrow for our motorists.
03:10 Before the Guadalupe bridge is closed, which is passed by more than 140,000 vehicles from 6am to 8pm,
03:17 temporary bridges must be built starting in August.
03:21 The DPPH-NCR recommended to be strong against strong winds.
03:25 If the schedules are continued, three repairs in Elsa will be done next.
03:29 There is a chance that the work will be done simultaneously and it will be right on the rainy season and Christmas.
03:34 It will help the MMDA and local government units.
03:40 If it is necessary, if there is nothing to do, we will close it.
03:43 But as long as we can avoid closing, we will avoid it.
03:46 For GMA Integrated News, Joseph Morong, your Saksi.
03:50 Kapuso, let's be Saksi together.
