00:00The daily traffic in Metro Manila is expected to increase as Christmas and Christmas rush approach.
00:08The authority in charge of the heavy traffic should be aware of what I'm about to say.
00:17Did you notice the heavy traffic in the past few days, especially in EDSA?
00:22According to the Metro Manila Development Authority or MMDA,
00:26as of November 25, more than 464,000 vehicles passed through EDSA every day.
00:34This is a possible consequence of many returning home for Christmas
00:38and those who started their Christmas shopping early.
00:41Definitely there will be an increase of volume of vehicles for the next few weeks.
00:46Traffic congestion or what we call bottlenecks will be near the mall areas.
00:51That's why even on weekends, there will be traffic.
00:54Even on Sundays, we will see heavy traffic on EDSA
01:00before it reaches North Avenue where the two large malls will be located.
01:06According to the MMDA, the heavy traffic will continue because of the Christmas rush.
01:13The traffic enforcers of the MMDA are also on extended duty.
01:17From November 18, 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. are the mall hours.
01:22If the malls want to open until dawn, that's better.
01:27What is our intention here?
01:29That mall goers should not follow the rush hours at night.
01:34Clearing operations for LGOs and MMDAs in Babuhay Lane will continue
01:38so that there will be no obstruction to alternative routes.
01:40Now, the volume in EDSA is heavy.
01:42Metro Manila Council also insisted that the malls should not be in the way of the traffic.
01:47They called on motorists.
01:50If we ourselves will violate, we will be the reason for the traffic.
01:54Then we will also complain that there is a lot of traffic.
01:57It's better if we follow the traffic laws.
02:00MMC also reminds all Christmas parties not to drive while drinking.
02:12.
