00:00 Are you one of the "Hingal Kalabaw"
00:04 in the construction of footbridge of EDSA Busway?
00:09 The Transportation Department has a solution
00:12 that is a big help especially to the seniors and PWD.
00:16 Oscar Oida is on the scene.
00:18 According to 60 years old Herminio,
00:25 he will soon be able to build a footbridge.
00:29 EDSA Carousel will just arrive in Bagong Baryo, Caloocan.
00:33 He is riding a bus to the hospital to undergo physical therapy
00:38 after he had a stroke in 2023.
00:41 It's hard but I can do it because I want to go back.
00:46 He is always accompanied by his wife.
00:50 However, being a wife is hard to climb the footbridge.
00:56 It's really hard because I have a heart disease.
01:00 I can't climb the footbridge but I can't do anything
01:05 because I need to take care of him.
01:08 It seems like they are relieved
01:11 when they notice the construction of the elevator in the EDSA Carousel.
01:16 I won't be tired anymore.
01:18 I hope it will be over soon
01:21 so that we can use it for people like me.
01:27 The DOTR confirmed that they are building elevators
01:32 in five stations of the EDSA busway.
01:34 I hope by June, hopefully before July,
01:38 this will be functional so that we can help our passengers on the busway.
01:42 Once it's done, it's okay.
01:44 You won't have a hard time because there's an elevator.
01:47 You won't have to climb the footbridge. You just have to press the button and it will go up.
01:51 Another good news,
01:53 because it's possible that after 2025,
01:56 the MRT 7 will be operational
01:59 from North Avenue to San Jose del Monte Bulacan.
02:03 But maybe the first 12 stations will be the ones that will be used.
02:08 We expect that the next two stations,
02:13 which is station 13 and 14, will be operational one year after.
02:20 The LGU of San Jose del Monte Bulacan has announced
02:24 that the first station will be moved to their location.
02:29 This June, there will be a joint inspection with the LGU
02:33 for their proposed alignments
02:36 to study what will be beneficial to the constituents of San Jose del Monte
02:42 and for other passengers who want to go to that area.
02:46 MRT 7 is expecting to deliver 530,000 daily ridership
02:52 when it becomes operational.
02:55 For GMA Integrated News, Oscar Oida,
02:58 Tutok, 24 Hours.
