San Juan City removes bollards along bike lanes in Ortigas

These bollards contribute to congestion and reduced road capacity as the country returns to pre-pandemic activities, Mayor Francis Zamora says

The MMDA said these barriers create maintenance issues, block driveways, and slow down emergency responses.

Zamora apologized for any inconvenience caused by the removal of the bollards, acknowledging that this decision might create problems for affected citizens. Instead of bollards, the city will install cat’s eye markers, a retroreflective safety device used in road marking. “We are extremely disappointed at the decision of Mayor Zamora to compromise the safety of bikers over the welfare of motor vehicles,” Ira Cruz of AltMobility PH told Rappler.
