00:00Because of the heavy rainfall on the motorists who were pushed by the damaged bridge in Marilao,

00:06which was called by the Department of Transportation to be led by the NLEX,

00:10do not pay attention to the affected part of the construction of the bridge.

00:16The latest on the traffic there, in the live coverage of Rafi Pima.

00:20Rafi.

00:25Vicky, the traffic is still slow here in the north and southbound lane of the NLEX

00:29and up to this time, the traffic is still slow.

00:33But according to the NLEX, there are some improvements.

00:36The number of people passing through the NLEX has decreased

00:39and they decided to follow their call to pass through alternative routes.

00:43But there are still a lot of people passing through the NLEX

00:47and maintaining the heavy traffic here on the expressway.

00:54From Impapawid, you can see the long line of vehicles on the NLEX northbound.

00:58It's just arriving in Valenzuela.

01:00The vehicles are already moving forward and there is no chance for them to stop even for a minute.

01:05They say that opening another line under the affected bridge is a big help.

01:09So from the two, the motorists can already pass through three lanes.

01:13The fourth is the zipper lane in the southbound of the NLEX.

01:16So there is a big improvement in the traffic flow.

01:19The tail end of the traffic on the northbound is here right after the smart connect interchange.

01:26It hasn't reached Balintawaktol Plaza yet.

01:29So previous days, I think it was around this time, it was already in Balintawaktol Plaza.

01:34At the moment, the people of the NLEX are preparing to return to Tulay.

01:38They have already placed scaffolding and removed the posters in Tulay.

01:42But even though the southbound lane is also affected by the heavy traffic flow,

01:46especially when the zipper lane is open,

01:48the heavy traffic flow reaches up to 5 kilometers.

01:51And because it's Friday, they expect that the traffic will become heavier tonight.

01:55Actually, our personnel are guiding them to exit our alternative routes.

02:02They don't want to. They prefer to stay inside.

02:07Because of the heavy traffic flow to the motorists,

02:10I am demanding from NLEX that while they are doing this,

02:15and our fellow countrymen are being harassed,

02:17for the area segment that is being harassed,

02:22please make it free for now.

02:24Our fellow countrymen should not pay for it.

02:27NLEX should also explain why they were hit by a truck

02:30that has a higher vertical clearance than the NLEX allows.

02:34According to NLEX, they are now working on a way to speed up the gathering

02:39and to find out why they were hit.

02:41As for making the free section of the NLEX free from the heavy traffic,

02:45they will announce on the coming days if they will stay here.

02:53Vicky, as of 7.12 p.m., this is the latest from the traffic operation center of NLEX.

02:59The traffic flow here in the northbound lane of the NLEX has decreased by 500 meters.

03:07Earlier, the traffic flow was 10 kilometers long

03:11until it reached the damaged Marilawa Interchange Bridge.

03:15Earlier, the tail end of the northbound lane was at the Smart Connect Interchange.

03:21As for the southbound lane or the directions to Manila,

03:24the traffic flow was still 5 kilometers long

03:27and the tail end of the traffic flow was at Bukawe Toll Plaza

03:32until it reached the damaged Marilawa Interchange Bridge.

03:36That's all for now from Marilawa.

03:38Vicky?

03:39Thank you very much, Rafi Tima.

03:51.
