Traffic Problem In Metro Manila (Merged Thread)

[camiar]

It seems as if only Isko is clearing the roads in his jurisdiction. To the 16 other MM mayors: “Hoy, sundin niyo yung directive ni Duterte!”

 

The City of Marikina has been doing it for at least 10 years already. Initiated by Bayani Fernando.

 

If you visit Marikina today, you'll appreciate how clean and orderly the city of Marikina is. Nakakatuwa.

 

Marikina should be the model for cleanliness and orderliness of all the other cities nationwide.

I've been there a couple of weeks ago and I can vouch that everything shown is the video is true even today.

Mayor Isko should look into the plethora of parked cars in the San Andres area. If I were the mayor, I will allow these parked cars from 10 pm until 7 am. After that, they should be towed.

Marikina, pasado na sa 60-day Challenge ng DILG, kasi mahigit 10-years nang maayos at mailinis ang mga kalsada nila.

Sumobra traffic when the small affordable cars flooded the metro. Majority now can easily avail the car even those without own parking space in their house. Bakit hindi ba bigyan ng Age limit yung mga car na nag tratravel along edsa? That way yung mga older car ay madisttribute sa mga provinces. Like if your car model is 10 years of age, dapat bawal na sa edsa. Di lang puro dagdag ng car, goverment should strategize how to effectively control the volume.

volume talaga problema. Kung iyong infrastructure sa probinsya eh maayos para maraming magtayo ng business, di sana karamihan ng tao nagsisiksikan sa Metro Manila

We have the best MRT system that our limited budget can buy. But Abnoy's administration let it deteriorate for the past 6 years of their watch.

I don't agree with this, specially on MRT. If you rode the MRT vs LRT 2, you can see and feel the big difference in the design on which one is tinipid. Not limited but i think tinipid ang Design ng MRT, hopefully no corruption. LRT 1 is way older but its running better than MRT. My view why the MRT deteriorated vastly and fast is due to its design. Not suitable for volume of passengers.

 

Here are my observations;

LRT1 = two rail tracks. Separate for south bound and for northbound. So the rails are less subject to stress. Kung ako approver, this is the ideal one. Been riding this for more or less 5 years. Walking distance from my place.

LRT2 = though im not frequently riding this but this is the best among the three. Maybe its new but not at all, you can see the difference on how it is build and how they foresee the long term ahead. The design is similar to LRT 1 but much improved one.

MRT = haha, sa sobrang bilis lumalagpas pa sa riles. Pag sumakay kang rush hour dito, dito ka makakapag decide to have your own car. Few times using this and the current state during rush hour is too much for me to handle. Parang hindi sya entirely two rail track so it needs ng effective control sa time para di magkaaberya and more train rails maintenance as well. Unfair naman kung isisi sa past and current admin kung ang possible lapses pala were during the start of planning. Sana yung head ng mga department of government ay expert sa bawat field they govern at di puro abogado. And sa quality, duon ako sa build quality ng japan.

Yung bagong bagong gawa pa lng nito nasakyan ko na year 2000 panahon ni ERAP.

 

mabilis wala kng mararamdaman rail track vibration.

 

it started to deteriorate panahon ni PNOY ng palitan yung Maintenance Provider.

 

yung MRT 3 ginawang gatasan ng mga tuta ni Pnoy at Mar Roxas.

Dapat talaga ganun yung takbo, smooth pag bagong bago. Saka nung time na yun iba pa state ng traffic at volume na gumagamit ng MRT. Big factor din yung pagbago ng maintenance provider. Pero iba talaga MRT compare sa LRT 1 and LRT 2.

 

Maganda rin siguro ibigay na yung emegency power only for traffic solution sa current president and let us see ano yung magiging improvement sa traffic. hinihintay ko din matapos yung common station at ma connect na yung MRT sa LRT 1.

[tk421]

Ang tanong eh pag natapos ba yan common station single ticket ang gagamitin o "lalabas" ka ng MRT tapos "papasok" uli sa LRT. In other words kung glorified pedestrian overpass ba yan o true integrated MRT/LRT system?

This is my opinion based on what I saw. Once the Skyway Stage 3 is finished, traffic on Edsa will be reduced significantly. The rationale being that the cars coming from Muntinlupa, Paranaque, and Las Pinas would use the Skyway. When the short part of the Skyway was opened from Quirino to Buendia, traffic was reduced significantly along Osmena. If only a short part was opened and it reduced traffic along a major thoroughfare, what more Edsa?

 

Nevertheless, emergency powers from traffic should still be given to Duterte even if only for two years.

I have a 21-year-old car, a Honda CRV. It is very well maintained and still running in tip-top shape.

 

A private car can last more than 10 years, with proper maintenance. The lawmakers know this, so the proposal to limit the age of cars will have difficulty passing approval.

Kung may emergency power pwedeng masubukan. Limit lang naman sya sa edsa. Di ko naman sinabi na bawal na syang gamitin. So malamang mdidistribute sa province yung mga ibang older cars. Pwedeng ibenta sa province to its salvage value. And while we are awaiting matapos yung mga ongoing infra structures sana mkagawa sila ng best remedies to at least slow down the traffic, yung volume kasi nakikitang kong lumubo talaga.

Kung gagawan naman ng batas sa Age limit ng Car sa edsa, sa tingin ko mas may pag asa pumasa or mauuna pa pumasa kesa sa i phase out ang jeepney. Sa jeepney kasi tsak may magrarally. Andyan yung grupo ng piston at mahaba habang isyu at balita sa tv yan which is iniiwasan ng mga politiko. Sa private car ba may nakita na tayong nagrarally? Wala di ba.

It is not about whether you rally or not. There were a plethora of schemes for private cars. Is it still being implemented? The private car owners don't need to rally as there are groups of private car owners that express their displeasure and call on politicians to intervene for them.
