Here are the five initial interventions to mitigate the traffic during the EDSA rehabilitation:

1. Toll fees will be waived for the segment of Skyway Stage 3 that will be used as a detour route during the EDSA rehabilitation.
2. Additional buses for EDSA to encourage mass transportation
3. More trains in MRT
4. Odd and even scheme on EDSA
5. Clearing of alternate routes of all obstructions

The priority for the EDSA rehab is the EDSA bus lane

With the “odd even” scheme and “limited” toll free Skyway, the MMDA expects to lessen the traffic by 25% and faster travel time along EDSA

MMDA eyes to build an exclusive motorcycle lanes along EDSA. They are no longer allowed in overpass and underpass. The MMDA, however, did not specify if this is only during the rehabilitation or it’s a permanent measure

Though, a point of concern of MMDA is how the traffic will be redirected to other roads

During the dry run, the MMDA will issue a ticket, but violators will not be required to pay fines

Clarifying this

During the EDS rehabilitation, the government eyes to remove bike lane separators. MMDA Chairman Don Artes says they plan to make it a shared lane for motorcycles and bikes

Artes said that he will be consulting with the motorcycle and bike communities

No specific dates yet for the implementation of shared lanes.

DPWH Secretary Bonoan says the EDSA is the “most polluted corridor” in Metro Manila because of traffic congestion. With its rehabilitation, the government eyes to “lessen pollution.”

Artes says that their technology is powered by AI but still reviewed by human

Artes cited an ambulance flagged by AI which should be exempted from ticket violation

Artes also eyes to purchase additional CCTVs

Traffic violators will receive a notice of violation the old way: mail. Though, the MMDA eyes to use text messages to issue a notice.

Noticeably, madaming violators sa morning, most likely 'yung mga papasok. Then, mataas din 'yung number of violators around lunch time between 11 am to 12 pm.

Sharing a sneak peek of the MMDA Command Center, where personnel monitor traffic violations through AI-powered CCTV cameras.

Common violations so far are disregarding traffic signs and illegal use of busway,
