Decongestion of Manila

The rapid population growth of Metro Manila, coupled with insufficient and deteriorating infrastructure have created traffic congestions causing an average annual loss of over PhP137Billion as of 2011, according to the University of the Philippines National Center for Transportation Study.

The overall congestion not only considerably slows down the speed of transportation, leading to diminished efficiency of the overall economy, but this also causes serious effects on the environment, impacting public health due to toxic pollution.
