In a unified plea to address the worsening traffic situation in Metro Manila, top transport group leaders rally behind the retention of 45,000 motorcycle taxi cap, citing the critical role scheme plays in averting further congestion and upholding the safety and effectiveness of public transportation in the capital.
Representatives from leading transport organizations, including Pasang Masda, NPTC, NACTODAP, LTOP strongly advocate the preservation of the existing cap. They warned of the detrimental impact that “uncontrolled growth in the motorcycle taxi fleet could have on Metro Manila’s already strained transport infrastructure.”
“Every additional motorcycle taxi exacerbates our traffic woes and sidelines traditional transport sectors crucial for our city’s mobility,” said Ariel Lim, underscoring the urgency of maintaining the cap. Jun De Leon echoed the group’s sentiments, highlighting the broader implications on public safety and livelihoods. “We must ensure that each step we take on our roads is a step towards progress, not regression,” De Leon said.
