Edsa busway still exclusive to buses amid temporary scheme in one stretch


MANILA, Philippines — The Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) on Tuesday clarified that the Edsa busway will remain exclusive to passenger buses, even as some lanes between Quezon City and Mandaluyong City will be temporarily opened to private vehicles.
The DPWH said that private vehicles will only be allowed to pass through Lane 1 to 4 of the Edsa Busway from Nepa Q-Mart to Boni Avenue stations for the next two weeks.
The temporary traffic scheme was implemented on Monday, Nov. 2, to ease traffic buildup while the DPWH’s Phase 2 of the Edsa rehabilitation is ongoing from Cubao, Quezon City to Guadalupe, Makati City.
