MMDA: Provincial buses can use EDSA until November 3
The Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) has temporarily allowed provincial buses to use portions of EDSA from 10 p.m. on October 30 until 5 a.m. on November 3 to accommodate passengers traveling for Undas.
This decision, made in response to a request from the Nagkakaisang Samahan ng Nangangasiwa ng Panlalawigang Bus sa Pilipinas Inc. (NSNPBPI), aims to reduce travel time for provincial buses.
Buses from North Luzon will be permitted to use EDSA to reach their terminals in Cubao, Quezon City.
Buses from South Luzon will travel along EDSA only up to the Parañaque Integrated Terminal Exchange and Pasay terminals.
Bus companies are also directed by the MMDA to adhere to the "nose in, nose out" policy to prevent traffic congestion.
MMDA Chairman Romando Artes stated the agency will monitor the situation at five major cemeteries in Metro Manila during the Undas observance.
