TAKING advantage of the absence of a huge number of motorists and travelers from the National Capital Region as they head to provinces for religious observances and family gatherings, the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) and a telecommunications firm will undertake 24-hour road works on major roads in Metro Manila during Holy Week.
“The clearance for the 24-hour road works aims to strike a balance between maintaining infrastructure and minimizing disruptions and inconvenience to motorists after the significantly religious holidays,” said Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) Acting Chairman Romando Artes.
Artes said the Holy Week break is the best time for contractors to complete their road works and reblocking activities, since “fewer vehicles are on Metro Manila streets during that period.”
Motorists are advised to take alternate routes as the road works will start on Wednesday, March 27 at 11 pm, and will continue round-the-clock until Monday, April 1 at 5 am.
They will be undertaken at these areas:
