Epifanio de los Santos Avenue

EDSA

Epifanio de los Santos Avenue (EDSA), the busiest road in Metro Manila, is undergoing a major rehabilitation aimed at modernizing the highway and reducing traffic congestion. However, the project has been postponed multiple times due to concerns over traffic disruption, public backlash against proposed measures like the odd-even scheme, and the need for a more efficient traffic management plan. The rehabilitation, initially set to begin in 2025, is now expected to start in 2026 and be completed by 2027.
