QCPD prohibits cross-border travel within GCQ bubble
Checkpoints at the Quezon City-Rizal border caused heavy traffic on Monday due to the implementation of the 'GCQ bubble' restrictions.
Quezon City Police District (QCPD) chief Brig. Gen. Danilo Macerin ordered police personnel to prohibit residents of Greater Metro Manila from crossing the border if they are not authorized persons outside of residence (APOR) or essential workers.
To enforce this, police inspected identification cards of motorists and passengers, turning away those without valid reasons to cross.
This strict implementation led to traffic lines stretching several kilometers, causing significant delays.
Macerin's order contradicted Malacañang's statement that travel within the bubble should be unimpeded.
The 'GCQ bubble' encompasses Metro Manila, Rizal, Bulacan, Cavite, and Laguna.
