00:00The daily traffic of many passengers in Calvario is getting heavier because of the Christmas rush.
00:07Live from Quezon City, we have the first news from James Cazustin.
00:11James, someone is passing by in the busway.
00:18Good morning. We are not in the busway right now. We are here in Commonwealth Avenue in Quezon City
00:23and there are already many passengers who are waiting to ride this morning.
00:27Earlier, we circled around the LITEX area before 6 in the morning and there are already many passengers there.
00:33The public vehicles such as air-conditioned buses, jeeps, and UV Express are not yet full.
00:39Some ordinary buses are already full of passengers.
00:42When it comes to the Commonwealth Market, the passengers are also accumulating.
00:46There are also many vehicles but some jeeps are already full.
00:49The passengers we talked to said that they noticed that when December comes,
00:54it will be hard for them to commute.
00:59It's very hard. It's a lot of work and you have to be the first one to get in the bus.
01:06You have to be the first one to get in the bus so that you can get to work.
01:12There's a lot of traffic, especially on Thursdays and Fridays.
01:16In my experience, when I go to work,
01:20even if I'm just here, I spend at most 45 minutes just to get in the bus.
01:28How do you discard it?
01:31My last option is to book motorcycles.
01:35I just discard it and wake up early.
01:41Meanwhile, this is the situation here in the Commonwealth Market.
01:45This is just after the market.
01:47There are a lot of passengers waiting to get in the bus.
01:50The truth is, earlier, there were more of them.
01:53There are people from the MMDA who are in charge here.
01:56Earlier, there was chaos here but now, the weather is better.
02:01Let's take a look at the traffic here in the Commonwealth Avenue.
02:05You can see the traffic here in the Commonwealth Avenue.
02:08You can see the westbound lane.
02:10Those who came from the Litex Baguio area,
02:13the vehicles are just waiting to arrive here.
02:16On the other direction, on the eastbound,
02:19going to the Fairview area, there are more vehicles.
