Traffic Problem In Metro Manila (Merged Thread)

[will robie]

Yes, because I said so as I was using the MRT *DAILY* during those times. How about you?

 

And the fact now is it's still lousy and it's under Duterte's time.

Anyone can claim that he rides the MRT everyday. It was an abomination during Moron Aquino's time. It is improving now because the DOTR is doing something about it. Edited November 30, 2018 by will robie

Our MRT line has been in decline ever since. It didn't start with the bald man-child's admin... it was in decline even before that even from GMA's term, but you wouldn't know that because you weren't one of its daily commuters.

 

Nag assume ka nanaman ng mali as usual.

Like you know. You don't even ride it.

 

June 28, 2004 – A northbound train stopped in between the Guadalupe and Boni stations after a power line broke, reportedly due to a fluctuation in the power supply. Train trips from Taft to Shaw stations were temporarily suspended. Panicking passengers caused a minor stampede, but no one got hurt.

August 12, 2004 – A southbound train stopped near the Kamuning station due to another power line breakage. Passengers were forced to go out and walk towards the stations to avoid being stranded. Trips were suspended from Shaw Boulevard to North Avenue stations.

October 8, 2005 – A damaged track caused the wheels of a train taking a turnaround at the North Avenue station to go off the rails. Northbound and southbound operations between the Shaw and North Avenue stations were suspended in the morning, and were resumed in the afternoon after the damaged track was repaired.

June 6, 2009 – A short circuit caused a small fire at a southbound train heading toward the Cubao station. The driver said he immediately turned off the engine after smoke was detected. The short circuit was reportedly caused by water seepage due to heavy rains in the past days.

I'm not including the ones during the bald man's terms as I'm not contesting that there were no problems then. But the incidents above show that the deterioration happened even before then.

That's all you can cite as example? One or two incidents per year?

 

You didn't include those during Baldie's term, because during your moron idol's administration, it was several times a month!

Ang keyword eh DETERIORATION. Meaning unti-unting nasisira or palala nang palala. Kung hindi nga talaga maganda ang pagpapatakbo ng train system. Talagang lalala ang problema. Ang problema kasi marunong lang ikaw manisi sa last term. Maging broad ka naman sa pagtingin hindi limitado. Harapin natin ang katotohanan na ang pag-manage sa MRT eh sadyang pinabayaan. Pero kung isisisi mo lang sa isang admin, hindi ba't kakitiran ng utak yang pinapairal mo?

once or twice a year? San na nanggaling? maging totoo ka naman sa sinasabi mo. kapani paniwala pa kung 1 per month. pero nagiging exaggerated ka ata sa fanaticism mo sa admin na ito.

 

Bago ka mawala sa fanaticism mo. lemme correct your notion na may pinapanigan ako na admin na kagaya mo. nakakahiya naman kasi kapag wala ka mabanat eh bababa ka sa level ng pagbrand kung anong grupo ako pumapanig.

Eto yun incidents nun kay Kalbo:

January 20, 2011 – A southbound train stopped near the Santolan station after a break pad got stuck. Passengers noticed a foul odor from the break pad, causing them to panic. Some sustained minor injuries.

March 21, 2011 – A coach of a southbound train suddenly got detached as it approached the Kamuning station. No one was hurt in the said incident.

February 7, 2012 – Only the northern half of the MRT was operational for two hours in the morning after a technical problem was found at the Guadalupe station.

March 19, 2013 – Trains were prevented from turning around and heading north from the Taft station, paralyzing the whole northbound trip. The move was implemented as a safety precaution due to disruption in electricity.

March 26, 2014 – At least 8 passengers were hurt after a southbound train suddenly stopped at the Guadalupe station. The sudden hard stop caused passengers to lose balance and trip or fall. Most of the passengers were rushed to the Makati Medical Center. (READ: Driver lapse causes MRT 3 accident)

June 3, 2014 – Lightning struck in the Kamuning area and hit one of the MRT's power lines, partly paralyzing operations from the North Avenue to the Shaw stations. Repairs were made and the system was restored after almost two hours.

2011 at 2014 lang ang may 2 incidents per year.

True mas madami kaysa sa naunang administrasyon, pero kung padamihan lang ang usapan at araw-araw na sira, eh panalo yun Dutete administrasyon dun, o di mo ba napapansin dahil sa pagka narrow-minded mo? Ang normal nga ngayon sa MRT 3 diba laging may sira at ang binibilang na lang yun mga araw na tumatakbo siya na walang problema?

In 2017 there was an average of 10 breakdowns PER WEEK.

January-March 2018 - 44 breakdown incidents.

Deterioration isn't an overnight thing. It started from somewhere and it started with the Dwende.

Duterte inherited a problem that began with the imbecile's administration due to changing of service providers, from a competent one to an incompetent one. Edited December 17, 2018 by will robie

[Dark Omen]

As of now I've seen the new wagons of MRT ay ginagamit na nila I hope magtuloy tuloy na at sana iimplement na nila ang bawal bumili ng sasakyan pag walang parking space

And which in turn started from the previous admin.

Because you said so? No basis at all.

[tk421]

Not just because I said (and experienced it so), I already gave proof that the problems began during the dwarf lady's time. But I wouldn't bet on someone with a memory span of a bee to remember that far.

[camus]

you want to solve the traffic problem within 1 month? its easy.

 

just remove ALL the special privileges of politicians and their families. walang vip treatment. make them go through life like the rest of us ordinary citizens.

make them wait through hours and hours of gridlocked traffic.

make them line up at LTO to renew their license, line up to get their nbi clearance, line up at DFA to get their passports,

line up at city hall to get business permits, line up to NSO to get birth certificates, and so on....

 

politicians dont know and dont care because they dont have to suffer like we do.

make them experience our pain and i guarantee you, solve lahat ng problems natin within 1 month.

Sa kayabangan din ng Pinoy kaya nagtraffic. SUVs amp tapos kakasikip ng kalsada rito. Tapos bibili ng malaking sasakyan at iilan pero walang parking.

 

Nung nasa Australia ako, walang number coding. Kahit may saskayan ay public transport ginagamit. Di rin puro SUVs kahit na maluwag mga daanan. Di rin bili ng bili kung ano bago.

Malaki ang Australia pero konti lang ang tao doon. Population density is low. Iba ang situwasyon nila, kumpara sa Pilipinas.

 

Hindi sa dami ng SUV ang dahilan ng pagsisikip ng mga kalsada.

 

Kulang ang kalsada, kulang ang MRT/Commuter Trains, kulang ang bus, at kulang ang Pasig river ferryboats. Sobra ang karag-karag na jeepney, tricycle, padyak,, etc...

When Tolentino was interviewed by ABS, he mentioned that he will push for the emergency powers for traffic. I hope he gets the chairmanship of the public services committee. The former chairman was useless as the chairman of that committee.

[dungeonbaby]

What is Tolentino's plan for Manila traffic, though?

 

 

I wish there was a system whereby we could report erring drivers easily. Where I live, there are two intersections where everyone complies with traffic rules because enforcers are stationed there. A couple of blocks away from those intersections, people get away with illegal turns and speeding. If everyone could report a violation, having proof of said violation with dashcam footage, and receive a small incentive for this I bet drivers would fall in line.

Its not his job to have a plan on traffic. He failed during Pnoys time, now as a Senator people from DoTr just need his support to give them power to implement their plans which was deprived by Poe.

[dungeonbaby]

That'd explain why people vote on loyalties versus platforms.

 

If he were to chair a committee maybe he should at least have some idea how the government might fix the problem. It's not like the DOTr has been free of issues.

 

Anyway, Tolentino did relaunch the Pasig River ferry system and he did stop oversize advertising beside roads; I'd say he has a vision in his head of how to approach this monster of a problem.

Poe was a disappointment even though she did seem to be asking the right questions. Whatever happened to the case against Abaya, I wonder.
