Metro Manila shifts to GCQ; no city buses until June 22

Metro Manila will shift to general community quarantine on June 1, but city buses and traditional jeepneys will not resume operations until Phase 2 starting June 22.

In the first phase from June 1 to 21, only trains, bus augmentation services, taxis, TNVS, shuttle services, point-to-point buses, and bicycles are allowed with limited passenger capacity.

Tricycles will also be permitted in areas where local government units approve them.

Phase 2 from June 22 to 30 will include public utility buses, modern jeepneys, and UV Express with reduced capacities.

All modes of transport will implement health protocols such as cashless payments, wearing masks, vehicle disinfection, availability of sanitizers, and use of thermal scanners.
