00:00This is the last weekend. Before Christmas, many of us are chasing to go home to their provinces.

00:07Let's talk about the current traffic flow in the live coverage of Niko Wake.

00:14Niko, where are you?

00:19Pia, I'm here at the Command Center of SLEX.

00:21But earlier, we passed through Calamba and the San Pedro, Laguna area where the traffic flow is heavy.

00:28According to the SLEX, the reason for that is the road widening.

00:35We are now here at South Luzon.

00:38The traffic flow started to get heavy around noon earlier in the SLEX in San Pedro, Laguna.

00:44According to the SLEX, the traffic started to decrease at 10 in the morning.

00:49Most of them went home early for the holiday season.

00:53The line of vehicles is 2.3 kilometers.

00:56At 2 in the afternoon, we reached the part of Calamba where the traffic flow is also heavy.

01:01The reason for the traffic in the SLEX is the road widening that is being done here.

01:06We have a widening. There is a bottleneck here.

01:08From five lanes to four lanes.

01:10And from three lanes to two lanes in the Calamba area.

01:14It's just slow moving. But after the bridge, it's fast again.

01:18In the northbound or the return of Metro Manila,

01:21We have a volume here in the C5 area and in the Bicutan area.

01:30But according to the SLEX, not that many are traveling.

01:34Only 50 percent of the expected 1.1 million daily average of vehicles traveled since yesterday.

01:41We expect that usually, around 10 or 11 p.m., the traffic will be heavy.

01:47But last night, it was only 9 p.m. and we already had traffic.

01:52It's possible because most of them entered on Monday.

01:55But the SLEX is ready for the arrival of travelers.

01:58All of our patrollers are deployed.

02:01The fire marshals and emergency ambulances are also deployed.

02:06Our quick reaction teams are also deployed.

02:10We also added ambulance deliverers so that we won't have problems in the road.

02:1695 percent of the vehicles now have RFID.

02:20Just make sure that the RFID is balanced so that it won't interfere with toll gates,

02:25which is also one of the reasons for the traffic.

02:31Here, it's already raining.

02:33This is the route of the traffic, northbound and southbound.

02:36You can see that.

02:38That's the San Pedro area, in the middle of Susan Heights and San Pedro.

02:42This is our other screen.

02:44This is the situation of Calamba.

02:47There is also a slowdown of the traffic.

02:50In the northbound, there is also a SLEX Command Center in Alabang Viaduct.

02:56The slowdown of the traffic is up to Bicutan.

03:00That's all for the latest.

03:01Back to you, Pia.

03:03Thank you very much, Nico Wahe.
