EDSA Rehabilitation Halted: Marcos Suspends Project Amidst MRT3 Family Promo Launch

President Bongbong Marcos' surprise announcement has halted the planned EDSA rehabilitation project, originally set to begin in June 2025. This decision follows a visit by President Marcos and his family to the MRT3, where they unveiled a new family discount for commuters. The video reveals that the suspension is due to concerns about the project's impact on traffic and the need for a more comprehensive cost-benefit analysis. The odd-even traffic scheme has also been canceled. One commuter interviewed expressed hope that the delay would lead to a more efficient and less disruptive rehabilitation process. The government's focus now shifts to a more detailed review of the project, aiming for a solution that minimizes commuter inconvenience.
