Hello expats!
Traffic in Manila is getting worse with a steady increase in car populations. Statistic shows that the car population in Manila by 2015 will be 25.72 Millions and more than half of than will be using EDSA as a main thoroughfare according to Manila Times.
Building a skyway above the existing EDSA is proposed to be the solution for this over decades of scourge in commuting and driving around the metro.
Meanwhile, MMDA also created the website to give updated information regarding traffic conditions of major roads in Metro Manila-- MMDA Online Database and their official Twitter account @MMDA
trap.ph is not an affiliate of MMDA, but it shares the common interest on giving the motorists and commuters a better idea for travelling in Metro Manila whether it's for work, school or fun time. Trapphik is a personal traffic navigator where registered members can create and manage their route to know the easiest way possible to their destination. It's also able to give the travel time that you need to reach your destination.
However, the traffic in metro manila will not work if traffic rules and regulations will be taken for granted by irresponsible bus drivers, motorists and even commuters. Website wouldn't work if online users will not use it as their guide on dealing the traffic situation on areas affected by heavy traffic.
I hope it will be worth-reading.
