MMDA restarts no contact apprehension policy on major roads

The Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) has restarted its no contact apprehension policy (NCAP) on Monday, May 26, 2025.

A total of 22 major roads and highways under the MMDA's jurisdiction are now covered by the NCAP.

All traffic violations are covered by the policy, and the MMDA is installing approximately 1,000 additional CCTV cameras to support the program.

The Supreme Court previously lifted a temporary restraining order (TRO) against the NCAP for major thoroughfares where the MMDA has jurisdiction, though the TRO remains in effect for local streets.

Key roads covered include circumferential roads like C1 Recto, C2 President Quirino Ave., C3 Araneta Ave., C4 EDSA, and C5 C.P. Garcia Ave., Katipunan Ave., and Tandang Sora.

Major radial roads affected include R1 Roxas Blvd., R2 Taft Ave., R3 South Superhighway, R4 Shaw Blvd., R5 Ortigas Ave., R6 Magsaysay Blvd./Aurora Blvd., R7 Commonwealth Ave., R8 A. Bonifacio, R9 Rizal Ave., and R10 Delpan, Marcos Highway, and McArthur Highway.
