The current jeepney fare will most likely remain the same even if the capacity for public utility jeepneys (PUJs) has increased with the easing of restrictions.

Even though jeepneys are allowed 70 percent capacity, the minimum fare of P9 or P10 for the first five kilometers will stay the same as Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board in Central Visayas Director Eduardo Montealto, Jr., said that the fare is determined by the national office.“Standardized naman na. Circular na nga isend from national government so dili pa gyod moubos sa pagkakaron,” said Montealto.

But Montealto said they can only wait for a national directive, which as of this posting, hasn’t been given yet.“Mahal na gyod kaayo ang plite. Maayo man to sauna kay gamay ra sa jeep. Karon, sigkit na kaayo nya mahal gihapon,” said Kim, a 24 year old worker in the Cebu Business Park.She said it is only fair that the fare is reduced now that more passengers can fit inside a jeepney or a bus.

Leon Gingoyon, a jeepney driver for 12 years plyong the 12I route in Cebu City, said that their regular capacity has not actually normalized yet despite the approval of a higher capacity. The removal of the plastic barriers has helped increase the capacity as he can now fit 10 passengers each side of his jeepney.

Election lang pala ang magpapahina sa covid . For LGUs to focus concentrate on the 'lessensed active cases' so it will not infect transmit or spread, thus if contained within 14 days the virus will further lessen or completely go away!!
