00:00Meanwhile, a part of the Legarda flyover is closed because this weekend, the company will start there.
00:07How is the situation there?
00:09In the first news live of James Agustin.
00:12James, traffic is increasing.
00:19Good morning. We still don't see any traffic here in the Legarda flyover in Manila.
00:25But, little by little, there are more and more vehicles passing through here.
00:28This is a warning to our fellow motorists because starting this weekend,
00:32DPWH is planning to open the expansion joints of this flyover.
00:38Expect a slowdown in traffic, especially during rush hour
00:42because only one lane in the westbound lane of this flyover is passed by motorists.
00:49Jessby's arrow signages were placed as a warning to motorists.
00:55Barriers were also placed in the westbound lane of the Legarda flyover
01:00where the Department of Public Works and Highways, North Manila District Engineering Office, is involved.
01:06This Saturday, July 6, DPWH started the replacement of 19 units of damaged expansion joints.
01:14That's why only one lane was passed by motorists.
01:17This is also a regular route for jeeps with travel divisions and trucks.
01:21Driver's jeeps say that this has a big effect on traffic, especially during rush hour.
01:26There's still no food, right? They're still doing that. There's a lot of traffic here.
01:29They're doing connecticut, all the trucks here.
01:32If they still do that, especially now, it's already in Budo.
01:35There's no choice. They don't know what to do there.
01:37In the morning, there's already traffic there.
01:40Entering.
01:42But, it's just slow because this is your home, right?
01:45Yes, there's no other way.
01:47The taxi driver, Virgilio, said that he will avoid passing through the area.
01:51There's a lot of traffic.
01:53It's up to us because, like us, we're going to Boundary.
01:57After the replacement of the expansion joints in the westbound lane of the flyover,
02:01the eastbound lane or the lane that leads to Magsaysay Boulevard will be followed.
02:06It is expected to be completed on November 6.
02:11Meanwhile, Ivan, as you can see, this is the part of the Legarda flyover
02:16where the DPWH people are trying to fix.
02:20What they discarded is portion by portion.
02:23That's just the first part.
02:25That's why the motorists who came from the area of Poreza, Santa Mesa, and going to Legarda,
02:30that's what will meet them when they get on the flyover.
02:35It's about 30 meters that only one lane is passed through.
02:40But after that, there are two lanes that our motorists can pass through.
