Transportation Undersecretary Artemio Tuazon cites the usage of bicycles and modernized jeepneys as alternative forms of transportation after the COVID-19 quarantine in the country.

The Department of Transportation suggested on Thursday the use of alternative forms of transportation after the COVID-19 quarantine in the country

On the issue of safety among bikers, Tuazon said the transportation department is working on designated bike lanes in major roads in the country. “Initially, we will be using the modernized jeeps," he explained."If the quantity is not enough to service the population of the riding public, then we will go back to using the older jeeps."

Less car on the road means less pollution, people on their bikes means healthier lifestyle. 👌🏽👍🏽Before implementing tho, safety measures should be in place. Piloting the idea into the city would be the first step

HOPELESS. Just hopeless.

DOTrPH especially the traffic in MANILA is terrible! Now would be the opportunity for new ideas & massive investments: Expand & modernize local transport infrastructure; promote & subsidize e-transport; create cycle paths; only allow Jeepneys with the latest emission standards.

Ipipilit na nmn pala ang modernized jeepney kaya pala di na puv ang jeepney na bahagi ng ating kultura. Ayaw ipapasada. Napaka anti poor talaga khit gitna ng pandemya.

Bad decision. Public transportation, such as modern buses and trains, is the best form of mass transportation for passengers, especially in Manila.
