QCPD to deploy 25 vehicles to assist commuters during transport strike
The Quezon City Police District (QCPD) will provide free rides to commuters starting Monday, November 20, in anticipation of the three-day transport strike organized by PISTON.
The transport group is protesting the government's public utility vehicle (PUV) modernization program, which they fear will lead to loss of livelihood.
The QCPD has allocated 25 vehicles that will be deployed to various routes in Quezon City to assist stranded passengers.
These routes include areas along Quirino Highway, Quezon Avenue, and EDSA, with specific deployment points detailed.
In addition to free rides, the QCPD will also deploy personnel, establish checkpoints, and conduct patrols to prevent illegal activities during the strike.
