Malacanang appealed to motorists in Metro Manila to be more patient in dealing with the expected worsening traffic condition as the government starts to carry out simultaneous construction of major infrastructure projects.
“Nananawagan na lang tayo na magkaroon ng pag-unawa ang ating mga mamamayan dahil hindi naman maaaring habang panahon nalang ipagpapaliban iyong pagsasagawa nito. Kinakailangan ang konting sakripisyo,” Presidential Communications Operations Office Secretary Herminio “Sonny” Coloma Jr. said in a press briefing in Malacanang Thursday.
“Let us share in the burden of sacrifice. [The] government will do what it can to mitigate the possible ill effects like traffic congestion,” he added noting the government can’t delay the repair of major thoroughfares like EDSA.
And as the government do these major infrastructure projects including the repair of EDSA, it plans to implement mitigation measures to lessen the burden to motorists, the Palace official said.
The Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) said at least 13 infrastructure projects will be constructed side-by-side in several parts of Metro Manila starting this year up to 2016 or before the term of President Benigno S. Aquino III ends.
Among these projects include the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) Elevated Expressway, Epifanio De los Santos Ave. (EDSA)-Taft the flyover, Skyway 3, C-5 to McKinley Ramps as well as the repair of Magallanes interchange.
Metro Manila mayors also gave their go-signal to several infrastructure projects to be undertaken by the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) and Department of Transportation and Communication (DOTC).
These include the Light Railway Transit (LRT) 2 East Extension Project, LRT-1 North Extension Project Common Station, Integrated Transport System Terminals (North and South), C-5 to McKinley Ramps, Skyway 3, and Bonifacio Global City to Ortigas Center Link Road Project, EDSA-North Mindanao interchange.
