Background 1.1 General In and around Metro Manila, there are five operational airports; namely Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA), Clark International Airport (CRK), Plaridel Airport, Sangley Point Air Base (SANGLEY) and Subic International Airport. NAIA is located approx. 10 km from the business center of Metro Manila, and is a gateway airport in the Philippines. NAIA handled approx. 34 million passengers consisting of 18 million domestic and 16 million international passengers in 2014. Also NAIA handled approx. 266 thousand aircraft movements consisting of 143 thousand domestic and 94 thousand international flights. CRK is located approx. 90 km to the northwest from the center of Metro Manila in the province of Pampanga. CRK handled 1.5 million passengers per annum in 2012, however, currently is handling less than 1 million passengers per annum, due to the fact that Emirate and Air Asia stopped their operations in CRK. As for the aircraft movements, CRK handled 26 thousand aircraft movements consisting of 1 thousand domestic and 6 thousand international flights and 20 thousand of general aviation in 2014. Plaridel airport is serving mainly general aviation, located in the province of Bulacan and approx. 35 km to the northwest from the center of Metro Manila. SANGLEY is located in the northern portion of Cavite peninsular and approx. 15 km to the southwest from Metro Manila. SANGLEY is being operated by the Philippines Navy and Air Force, however, SANGLEY is also accommodating some general aviation aircraft for the purpose of mitigating NAIA¶s capacity constraint. Subic International Airport is located in Olongapo city approx. 80 km. Once, Federal Express utilized Subic International Airport as a cargo hub airport. 1 JICA¶s Information Collection Survey For New Manila International Airport JICA In the Republic of the Philippines DOTC Figure 1-1 Locations of Airports and Airfields in and around Metro Manila 1.2 Airport Capacity Constraints NAIA handled more than 34 million passengers and 260 thousand aircraft movements per annum including general aviation in 2014, and it seems already to have reached the capacity limit. The trend of the air passenger movements in NAIA is upward in due course of high economic growth rate in the Philippines. Also high popularity of LCC airlines pushes runway capacity limitation as well, and this trend would be continuing in the short-term. Expansion of NAIA¶s property seems difficult. Mitigation measures are necessary as soon as possible in order to accommodate the vigorous air traffic demand. The Government of the Philippines had declared in 1994 to utilize CRK as a premier international gateway airport in the Philippines so that air traffic demand in the National Capital Region (NCR) would be handled by NAIA and CRK. However CRK is not fully utilized currently, the reasons behind the underutilization include lack of high speed railway access and unpredictable travel time to/from Metro Manila. 1.3 Alternative Solutions Examined In the wake of airport capacity constraints, following alternative solutions have been examined; i) Upgrading CRK to a Gateway Airport; and ii) Capacity enhancement of NAIA 1) Upgrading CRK There exists a large scale development plan named ³Clark Green City´, which is a new project converting the area into a new urban area. When ³Clark Green City´ development is realized, Metro Clark is also coming out in the future, and CRK is expected to accommodate the future air traffic demand induced from Metro Clark and northern Luzon area. 2 JICA¶s Information Collection Survey For New Manila International Airport JICA In the Republic of the Philippines DOTC Passenger terminal building of CRK was expanded in 2013 with a capacity to accommodate 4.5 million passengers per annum, and also there is a plan to build a new budget terminal building with 15 million passenger capacity as well. CRK airport property area is approx. 2,340 ha, sufficient for developing airport facilities of a gateway airport, and therefore, CRK has a large potential to accommodate the passenger and cargo demand spilled over from NAIA, on condition that travel time would significantly become predictable. Figure 1-2 Current and Future Direction of Urbanization around Metro Manila 2) Capacity enhancement of NAIA NAIA has been experiencing its runway capacity limitations during peak hours. General aviation (GA) is also being accommodated at NAIA. Because of the significant difference in the aircraft speed between the commercial and GA aircraft as well as wider separation space between large and GA aircraft, mixed operations of GA and commercial jet aircraft give adverse influence for maximization of runway capacity. Although NAIA¶s runway capacity has nearly reached its limit, there are some spaces to accommodate flights in the early morning and late evening because of insufficient air navigation and aeronautical ground lights facilities at local airports. In case these deficiencies at local airports are improved, the vacant slots during early morning and late evening could be utilized. 3 JICA¶s Information Collection Survey For New Manila International Airport JICA In the Republic of the Philippines DOTC There is possibility for international direct flights between foreign airports and local airports in the Philippines, because of the attractiveness of local areas such as Cebu and Bohol in Visaya, among others, after development of local airports. Financial incentive may somehow induce airlines to move to CRK instead of NAIA operation, but it is likely not to attract many airlines to move to CRK if this incentive measure is applied alone. Some other measures such as ease of taxation in case of the airlines utilization of CRK instead of NAIA, or in case of new airline¶s entrance to the market etc., it may make synergy influence. 1.4 Roadmap for Development of New Manila International Airport Alternative solutions should be realized immediately, otherwise NAIA would face capacity constraint in the near future. Although those measures could be undertaken, the air traffic demand of Greater Capital Region (GCR) in the Philippines would overwhelm NAIA¶s airport capacity sooner or later. Realistically, CRK is a position to accommodate over spilled air traffic demand of NAIA, and in this context, CRK should be develop in the short-term. ³Roadmap Study´ in 2013 showed necessity of New Manila International airport (NMIA) to cater for increasing air traffic demand of GCR. Until opening of NMIA, NAIA will continue to be the main gateway airport of the Philippine, while CRK will accommodate relatively smaller air traffic until Metro Clark generates demand. Following table shows image for development of the airport system for GCR. To cater for the vigorous air traffic demand for GCR, NMIA needs to be developed at an appropriate location near Metro Manila.

  • Traffic Solutions for Metro Manila: a Realistic Approach Traffic
    Traffic Solutions for Metro Manila: A Realistic Approach Traffic congestion and traffic discipline are perennial discussions at coffee shops and in meeting rooms throughout Metro Manila. It is an accepted fact that congestion hinders the free flow of goods and services, contributes significantly to pollution, and costs billions of pesos (billions!) in wasted fuel, time and productivity. Studies have been done, solutions proposed, and money spent for years, with little real improvement to show for the expense. Those tasked with managing the problem, from one administration to the next, have all clung persistently to the same mantra – that the answer lies in more roadways and the use of the latest high-tech gadgets. I would like to offer an alternative opinion: Traffic in Metro Manila is congested and chaotic because we allow it to be that way. 'We' in this case refers to both the road users and the road managers. We don't follow, or effectively enforce, the basic rules which are designed to ensure a safe, efficient flow of traffic. We don't respect lane markings (including turn lanes), we ignore traffic signs and signals, and we routinely drive in ways that are both dangerous and disruptive to the flow of traffic. Pedestrians cross wherever they want, and they stand in the roadway in large numbers while waiting for public transportation. Public buses and jeepneys operate aggressively and dangerously. Each of these behaviors, repeated at thousands of points across Metro Manila roadways every day, disrupt the free flow of traffic and cause the congestion and chaos that we have come to accept as normal.

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.

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.

  • 1 Introduction
    Formulation of an Integrated River Basin Management and Development Master Plan for Marikina River Basin VOLUME 1: EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1 INTRODUCTION The Philippines, through RBCO-DENR had defined 20 major river basins spread all over the country. These basins are defined as major because of their importance, serving as lifeblood and driver of the economy of communities inside and outside the basins. One of these river basins is the Marikina River Basin (Figure 1). Figure 1 Marikina River Basin Map 1 | P a g e Formulation of an Integrated River Basin Management and Development Master Plan for Marikina River Basin VOLUME 1: EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Marikina River Basin is currently not in its best of condition. Just like other river basins of the Philippines, MRB is faced with problems. These include: a) rapid urban development and rapid increase in population and the consequent excessive and indiscriminate discharge of pollutants and wastes which are; b) Improper land use management and increase in conflicts over land uses and allocation; c) Rapidly depleting water resources and consequent conflicts over water use and allocation; and e) lack of capacity and resources of stakeholders and responsible organizations to pursue appropriate developmental solutions. The consequence of the confluence of the above problems is the decline in the ability of the river basin to provide the goods and services it should ideally provide if it were in desirable state or condition. This is further specifically manifested in its lack of ability to provide the service of preventing or reducing floods in the lower catchments of the basin. There is rising trend in occurrence of floods, water pollution and water induced disasters within and in the lower catchments of the basin.
