Traffic Problem In Metro Manila (Merged Thread)

[haroots2]

The private vehicles are growing in number exponentially because of cheaper gasoline and because it is easier to own a car now because of relatively low bank financing interest rates and the fringe benefits of companies to its employees. It's a matter of affordability, not crime.

I agree that its more affordable now but I only stated one of the reason that increases in volume. We have a heavy traffic problem before gasoline rate becomes cheaper and not just because interest rates is lower you have to buy one. It only entice you to buy it because its safer especially for women.

Suggestion sa traffic problem. Watch the videos in the news. Kung consistent ang problem, it only means that the enforcers are not doing their jobs, which means their supervisors are not doing theirs. Fire the supervisors. If so many supervisors have problems of weak supervision, fire the supervisor of the supervisors, and so on up the line. Always make it the accountability of the immediate supervisor up the chain. Cheap solution lang ito - that is if we really are serious

[rey.etder]

its never going to be fixed. roads are too small, manila is too small and the amount of cars are just too much. its a simple math.

[shemale]

wala ba ginagawa goverment sa traffic situation dito lalo nagiging worst kasi.

[jopok]

simple muna...alisin lahat ng naka park sa mga national road..sa taft lang lapit sa la salle...malate area...yung mga negosyo na walang parking area at ang kliyente ay nakapark sa daanan..trysikel at pedicab,kuliglig sa mga national road...zone run ng mga bus...

considering there are more drivers on the road than enforcers, we could make a whole lot of difference by displaying more discipline by inculcating discipline among ourselves

I no longer see any solution actually. Dami mahilig mangatwiran e. Ive seen and read lots of suggestions only to be shutdown by a selfish argument.

 

Lets take the cars parked on/by the sidewalks as an example. Obviously they are a cause of traffic. Remove them. Dont counter that there are no parking spaces. Layo kayo ng onti at may makikita din kayo. Maghanap ka kahit malayo. Ang tatamad gusto lagi malapit sa babaan.

 

Kung wala talaga makuha space then leave the car in your garage. Walang garahe? Why buy a car in the first place? Kasi convenient/secure? I dont see the convenience when you would be cursing the long hours on the road because of traffic. There is still no security when you're stuck in traffic with close to frustrated drivers around. Kahit saan ka magpunta kung di ka maingat mapag didiskitahan ka talaga sa krimen.

 

 

Thats just an example. Mahirap alisin sa atin ang pangangatwiran. Hanggat walang gusto magbigay - wala tayo karapatan umasa.

 

Ang totoo ang nakikita kong solusyon ay alisin ang mga lumang kotse/van/truck. Ung mga mausok ang tambutso. Dalawa ang masosolusyunan nun. Trapiko at polusyon.

 

Ai onga, may magrereklamo wag makialam sa kotse ng my kotse kasi di ko naman pera pinambili 😏

Mass Transpo ang solution. And also ung No Garage, No Car Policy sana maipasa.

Unfortunately, Daang Matuweed is an epic fail at this.

Correct!

 

Kahit hindi garage. Kahit carport lang.

 

No Carport - No Car Policy.

 

Just like in major Japanese cities like Tokyo..

 

Start with Makati and Manila.

Kahit anong traffic measures ang gawin kung andito naman sa Metro Manila ang karamihan ng trabaho walang mangyayari dahil sa dami ng dumadaang sasakyan lalo na sa EDSA. Karamihan dito sinisisi ang mga PUV na nagko-cause ng traffic pero ang dami kong nakikitang SUV sa EDSA driver lang ang nakasakay. Noong nasa Legaspi kami, kahit rush hour ang luwag dahil karamihan ng mga tagaroon tumitira sa Metro Manila para magwork

Create jobs outside of NCR. Give people a reason to go back to their provinces. That will reduce the traffic problem among other things.

[kanto-terrorist]

kahit anong scheme pa yan, kahit hi hitler pa gawin mong traffic czar, ang nag iisang solusyon lang is decentralization. ikalat ang business district sa baguio, subic/clark, cebu at davao. tanggalin ang provincial wage rate. siksikan na tayo dito, di na kaya ng metro manila. tingnan mo sa vietnam, mamimili ka kung sa taas (hanoi) o sa baba (Ho Chi Minh) ang gusto momg mag trabaho at mag settle.

 

Economic Federalism is the key. kahit di na political, Economic and Business na lang.

Fix public transportation system. I would start would with trains: mrt, lrt, pnr. Magulo din roads Pero Mamaya na yun. Unahin trains. First you fix the current trains, then you expand network. No traffic sa trains. Imagine... If you have good train network, you can go home to batangas and be in your office in makati in 1 hour.
