Here are alternative routes you can take amid the EDSA rehabilitation
The Metropolitan Manila Development Authority has provided alternative routes that can be taken by motorists who will be affected by the EDSA Rehabilitation Project.
The Department of Public Works and Highways is set to implement a comprehensive traffic management plan on EDSA next month to fix Metro Manila's most congested and deteriorated thoroughfares.
Since traffic obstruction and slowdown are expected, the MMDA has identified several alternative routes that motorists can take to avoid the heavily affected sections of EDSA during the rehabilitation period.
Below are the roads you can take:
Aside from these, the MMDA also urged motorists to use Mabuhay Lanes.
The EDSA rehabilitation will begin with preparatory works by the evening of June 13. This means they won't start digging or doing heavy construction work yet. Instead, during this initial phase, they will mark or identify the specific sections of the road that need to be repaired or reconstructed.
After about two weeks, the agency will start excavations or changing the pavement. The DPWH has ultimately set a target completion year of 2027. Construction is expected to reach significant progress by 2026.
