Vehicles continue to build up in several points along the North and South Luzon Expressways Thursday morning as more Filipinos continue to head for provinces for the Holy Week.

As of 10:07 a.m., traffic along the Calamba Toll Plaza in SLEX has become moderate, with the queue of vehicles reaching 1.2 kilometers, the Toll Regulatory Board said on Twitter. Ambulant tellers have been deployed and a counterflow lane has been opened.
 

A 500-meter queue is also building up along the SLEX toll plaza in Ayala, Alabang.

The traffic situation along the northbound lanes from Calamba and Ayala, meanwhile, remains light.

As of 10:08 a.m., the traffic is moderate to heavy along NLEX from Mindanao Avenue in Quezon City to Balagtas Interchange in Bulacan, the Tollways Management Corporation (TMC) tweeted.
 

The traffic flow also ranges from moderate to heavy in the northbound lane from Balintawak Toll Plaza to Sta. Rita Interchange. The same traffic situation has also been reported from Bocaue Interchange to Dau in Pampanga.

The queue of vehicles along the Dau Toll Plaza has reached approximately 1 kilometer, according to TRB.

TMC said on Twitter that the heavy traffic flow in these areas is due to the large volume of vehicles passing along NLEX. Xianne Arcangel/RSJ, GMA News
