No changes in public transport capacity amid ECQ: DOTr
The Department of Transportation (DOTr) announced no changes to the passenger capacity of public transport in the NCR Plus bubble under enhanced community quarantine (ECQ).
Instead, the DOTr will strictly enforce the 'seven commandments' for public transport, which include safety measures like the one-seat-apart rule and prohibiting standing passengers.
Only Authorized Persons Outside of Residence (APOR), such as health workers and front-liners, are allowed to use public transportation.
Public utility buses, traditional and modern jeepneys, and UV Express vehicles remain allowed to carry 50% of their maximum passenger capacity.
Only one passenger is permitted in the driver's row.
Provincial buses are restricted to point-to-point trips without picking up passengers en route.
