The conceptual arterial system in Metro Manila XL consists of six circumferential roads and 10 radial roads. Circumferential Road 4 (C-4) better known as Epifanio delos Santos Avenue (EDSA) is the most important component of the major thoroughfares system of Metro Li Manila and is heavily congested. To reduce the traffic load at EDSA, the Department of Public Works and Highways is prioritizing the completion of Circumferential Road 5 I L (C-S) and its related roads. However, it is anticipated that the completion of C-5 and consequently the diversion of traffic from EDSA to (C-5) will result to new traffic rI problems in other roads. One of these will be the - worsening of traffic congestion at the intersection of Aurora Boulevard and Katipunan Avenue. The proposed project is meant to-minimize this problem. In addition, 'the project will provide another bridge crossing Marikina River which will provide easier accesibility to the fast urbanizing areas east of the river. The Marikina Bridge and Access Road Project will be an interchange complex connecting Boni Serrano Avenue to F" Marcos Highway. From Boni Serrano Avenue, it will pass along the west bank of the Marikina River before branching into two directions. One link will connect to . the east approach of Marcos Bridge while the other will connect with Marcos Highway at the west approach of the -- bridge. All connections will be grade separated to allow F a fully uninterrupted traffic flow. The positive impacts of the project includes the reduction of traffic congestion at the intersection of Aurora Boulevard and Katipunan Avenue; faster travel from and to Marikina, San Mateo, Montalban, Antipolo, and other towns of Rizal Province; and the easing of traffic at EDSA through traffic diversion to C-5. An indirect impact will be the reduction of air pollution at EDSA as a result of the diversion of traffic to C-5 and becauise the vehicles will be moving faster and staying shorter | time on the road. Air pollution at the intersection of Aurora Boulevard and Katipunan Avenue will also decrease mainly because of the easing of traffic congestion. 3 F 'l The negative impacts of the project includes the increase of air pollutants at the project site; the dislocation of some squatter families; and the destruction of the present crops planted at the project site. These however, 1L are not very serious to warrant the scrapping of the project. Mitigating measures that will be adopted to address the above negative impacts includes the provision of a relocation site for those that will be dislocated; the planting of trees along the road to reduce air and noise pollution; and the compensation of people who will lose their properties as a result of the project. The project as a whole will be beneficial to people in Metro Manila and the positive impacts far outweighs the negative impacts. r. I. F~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ r - - r- r 4 I.

This project which is being proposed by the above office is intended to ease the traffic congestion in Metro Manila. T,The problem of traffic congestion in Metro I Manila is increasing at an alarming pace. This is the result of the very rapid development in the area and the failure to provide the necessary infrastructure to match such development. During the 1950's, the geographical extent of the '' urban development was contained within the boundaries of C-4 which is now popularly known as Epifanio de los Santos Avenue (EDSA). The region consisted of the four cities of Manila, Kalookan, Pasay, and parts of Quezon City and the town of San -'i Juan in Rizal Province. During the 1960's and 1970's, as urban sprawl ensued, the Metropolitan Manila region grew from an original area of K'! approximately 80 square kilometers in 1953 to 260 square kilometers in 1972, and then to 410 square kilometers in 1976. In 1972, satellite photos of the Metro Manila region showed that urban sprawl encompassed the additional towns of Valenzuela in Bulacan Province, and Malabon, Navotas , Pasig, |1~ Mandaluyong, parts of Las Pinas and Paranaque in Rizal Province. In 1976, after the edict creating the Metro Manila Commission governing the special ii National Capital Region, the towns of Taguig, Muntinlupa, Pateros, and Marikina; all of the Province of Rizal were likewise incorporated into 14 what is now called Metropolitan Manila. In 1986, Metropolitan Manila covered an area'of approximately 710 sq. kms. By this time the urban I sprawl of Metro Manila had extended over the boundaries of the National Capital Region and has even encroached on the neighboring towns of Cainta, Fl Taytay, and Antipolo of Rizal Province; San Pedro, 5 ii and Binan of Laguna; Bacoor of Cavite; and Meycauyan of Bulacan. The geographical extent of the metropolis has increased from a radius of development of 7 kms. in 1953 to 20 kms. in 1986. At this time, the radius could be around 25 kms. Despite efforts by the government to infuse larger capital investments in the region, government infrastructure programs have not kept pace with the population growth and physical development. The fast paced population growth has overshot allocated capital investments of the government. In a span of 37 years, the urban population grew from 1.7 million to 7.8 million in 1990.

  • Applicability of the Bus Rapid Transit System Along Epifanio Delos Santos Avenue
    5st ATRANS SYMPOSIUM STUDENT CHAPTER SESSION AUGUST24-25, 2012 BANGKOK THAILAND APPLICABILITY OF THE BUS RAPID TRANSIT SYSTEM ALONG EPIFANIO DELOS SANTOS AVENUE Paper Identification number: SCS12-004 Marcus Kyle BARON1, Caroline ESCOVER2, Mayumi TSUKAMOTO3 1Department of Civil Engineering, College of Engineering De La Salle University - Manila Telephone 02-524-4611 E-mail: [email protected] 2Department of Civil Engineering, College of Engineering De La Salle University - Manila Telephone 02-524-4611 E-mail: [email protected] 3Department of Civil Engineering, College of Engineering De La Salle University - Manila Telephone 02-524-4611 E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Epifanio delos Santos Avenue (EDSA), the 24-kilometer long prime artery of Metro Manila experiences heavy traffic daily. According to recent studies, 50% excess buses add drastically to the growing number of vehicles passing through EDSA. One way to decongest traffic is to cut through the volume of buses. A Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system can be more effective in improving the service operation of buses rather than implementing more city bus operations. The study presents a proposed BRT system in EDSA. The study evaluates the transportation impact of the BRT system on commuter movement and urban travel, and assesses the environmental benefits of the proposed BRT system. Data used in this study were obtained through vehicle counting, onboard surveying of bus, cars, taxi and MRT and 1996 MMUTIS study. These were calibrated using the software EMME3 to build a traffic demand forecast model considering four scenarios: without BRT on the base year; without BRT on the design years; with BRT and with city buses traversing along EDSA; and with BRT but without the city buses traversing along EDSA on the design years 2016 and 2021.

  • Current Bus Service Operating Characteristics Along EDSA, Metro Manila
    TSSP 22 nd Annual Conference of the Transportation Science Society of the Philippines Iloilo City, Philippines, 12 Sept 2014 2014 Current Bus Service Operating Characteristics Along EDSA, Metro Manila Krister Ian Daniel Z. ROQUEL Alexis M. FILLONE, Ph.D. Research Specialist Associate Professor Civil Engineering Department Civil Engineering Department De La Salle University - Manila De La Salle University - Manila 2401 Taft Avenue, Manila, Philippines 2401 Taft Avenue, Manila, Philippines E-mail: [email protected] E-mail: [email protected] Abstract: The Epifanio Delos Santos Avenue (EDSA) has been the focal point of many transportation studies over the past decade, aiming towards the improvement of traffic conditions across Metro Manila. Countless researches have tested, suggested and reviewed proposed improvements on the traffic condition. This paper focuses on investigating the overall effects of the operational and administrative changes in the study area over the past couple of years, from the full system operation of the Mass Rail Transit (MRT) in the year 2000 to the present (2014), to the service operating characteristics of buses plying the EDSA route. It was found that there are no significant changes in the average travel and running speeds for buses running Southbound, while there is a noticeable improvement for those going Northbound. As for passenger-kilometers carried, only minor changes were found. The journey time composition percentages did not show significant changes over the two time frames as well. For the factors contributing to passenger-related time, the presence of air-conditioning and the direction of travel were found to contribute as well, aside from the number of embarking and/or disembarking passengers and number of standing passengers.

    PART II METRO MANILA AND ITS 200KM RADIUS SPHERE CHAPTER 7 GENERAL PROFILE OF THE STUDY AREA CHAPTER 7 GENERAL PROFILE OF THE STUDY AREA 7.1 PHYSICAL PROFILE The area defined by a sphere of 200 km radius from Metro Manila is bordered on the northern part by portions of Region I and II, and for its greater part, by Region III. Region III, also known as the reconfigured Central Luzon Region due to the inclusion of the province of Aurora, has the largest contiguous lowland area in the country. Its total land area of 1.8 million hectares is 6.1 percent of the total land area in the country. Of all the regions in the country, it is closest to Metro Manila. The southern part of the sphere is bound by the provinces of Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, Rizal, and Quezon, all of which comprise Region IV-A, also known as CALABARZON. 7.1.1 Geomorphological Units The prevailing landforms in Central Luzon can be described as a large basin surrounded by mountain ranges on three sides. On its northern boundary, the Caraballo and Sierra Madre mountain ranges separate it from the provinces of Pangasinan and Nueva Vizcaya. In the eastern section, the Sierra Madre mountain range traverses the length of Aurora, Nueva Ecija and Bulacan. The Zambales mountains separates the central plains from the urban areas of Zambales at the western side. The region’s major drainage networks discharge to Lingayen Gulf in the northwest, Manila Bay in the south, the Pacific Ocean in the east, and the China Sea in the west.
