To ease traffic during the yearly exodus for Undas (All Saints’ and All Souls’ Days), the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority is lifting the number coding for provincial buses starting Thursday.
MMDA chairman Francis Tolentino also said there will be no reblocking or repair works in Metro Manila this weekend.
“Ni-lift natin ang number coding ng provincial buses bukas. Hindi pa ito normal na paggamit ng tunnel,” he told radio dzBB in an interview.
“Pati road reblocking wala muna,” he added.
An earlier report by radio dzBB’s Glen Juego said the number coding for provincial buses will be lifted from October 30 until the Undas weekend.
Odd-even scheme
Provincial buses whose license plates end in odd numbers may use the underpasses on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
