00:00 The MMDA has started the closure of motorcycle riders who have been stuck under overpasses and flyovers for a long time.
00:08 Joseph Moro has a report.
00:10 When it rained this morning, the motorcycle riders got stuck under the footbridge at Edsa Cubao.
00:19 They were carrying three lanes.
00:22 The result is traffic because only one lane is being passed.
00:27 The MMDA warns that besides the traffic, it is also dangerous.
00:31 If it rains heavily, the visibility is low and if they are under footbridges or MRTs,
00:39 there is a high chance of an accident.
00:43 From today, riders who are stuck under overpasses and flyovers will be ticketed.
00:50 They can get stuck for a while to wear a cap, but they need to leave immediately.
00:56 During the MMDA traffic enforcement bureau tour in Edsa,
00:59 some violators were stuck in the corner of East Edsa.
01:03 It is not right because just like the sudden rain,
01:09 maybe it really stopped because there is really traffic.
01:14 They are pushing the riders who are not wearing a cap to the footbridge
01:20 because they will speed up the motorcycle when it rains to get to the footbridge.
01:29 MMDA is not allowing the riders to ride because they are not solving the problem.
01:39 They are putting their lives in danger and they will collect a high fine.
01:48 MMDA is now urging the court to put a tent in the gas stations.
01:54 The minimum allowance for students while others are already receiving is higher than LRT 1 and LRT 2 which will start tomorrow.
02:04 In LRT 2, the previous 30 pesos for a single journey ticket from Antipolo to Legarda will be 35 pesos.
02:11 The stored value cards are cheaper.
02:14 In LRT 1, from 12 pesos to 29 pesos, the stored value card will be 14 to 35 pesos.
02:23 The single journey ticket in LRT 1 will be 15 to 35 pesos.
02:28 My allowance is only for the stored value card.
02:34 According to DOT, the government still gave a 148 pesos answer for each passenger.
02:40 However, Light Rail Manila Corporation said that LRT 1 is operating at a lower cost than they asked for.
02:47 They said that the additional cost of the operation will help them recover the 1.46 billion pesos fare deficit.
