EDSA Rehab Project Suspended: Marcos Seeks Faster Completion

EDSA Rehabilitation in the Philippines Halted: President Marcos Orders Review Metro Manila, Philippines – The Philippine government announced today the suspension of the EDSA rehabilitation project and the accompanying odd-even traffic scheme. The decision, announced by President Bongbong Marcos, comes as a response to concerns about the project's timeline. The initial plan was to complete the project in two years, but President Marcos has called for a review to find more efficient methods. "The President wants to look at international practices and state-of-the-art technologies to see how we can fast-track the implementation," reported Joseph Morong of GMA Integrated News. The suspension will allow for a thorough review of the project's plans, materials, and implementation strategies. The suspension of the EDSA rehabilitation project and odd-even scheme has raised concerns among commuters. However, the government assures the public that the No Contact Apprehension Policy (NCAP) will remain in effect. The government is committed to finding solutions to improve traffic management in Metro Manila and complete the EDSA rehabilitation as quickly as possible. This commitment to finding a more efficient solution suggests that the project will eventually resume with improvements.
