Four LTFRB memorandum circulars dated April 10 indicate that a total of 1,948 public utility jeepneys are set to resume operations on 62 routes in the National Capital Region .

The deployment of additional PUJs came amid the lowering of quarantine protocols in the “greater Manila area” from an enhanced community quarantine to a modified . The LTFRB said the move was in line with the directive of Department of Transportation Sec. Arthur P. Tugade to allow additional public utility vehicles back on roads amid the reduced passenger capacity being implemented in all forms of land transportation.
