DOTr mulls hybrid carousel along Commonwealth Avenue, QC
The Department of Transportation (DOTr) is studying the feasibility of establishing a "hybrid carousel" system along Commonwealth Avenue in Quezon City, similar to the busway on EDSA.
DOTr Acting Secretary Giovanni Lopez instructed the agency's road sector to develop a plan for the proposed system within two weeks.
This initiative arose after Lopez experienced the difficulties of commuting on Commonwealth Avenue himself.
The implementation of the hybrid carousel will require coordination with the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) and the Quezon City local government.
Lopez also directed transportation officials to use public transportation at least once a week to better understand commuter needs.
