The MMDA has just revealed a plan to ban jeepneys that run through parts of EDSA, including what will likely be an unpopular inclusion: ban them from even just crossing EDSA.
The plan is estimated to affect a thousand jeepneys in the affected routes, while hoping to decongest EDSA traffic. While the idea may sound unpopular to jeepney drivers and commuters, the top two transport groups have already expressed their support.
Initially, there will be no fines imposed on violators as the details are discussed among those concerned; at the same time, the implementation will be limited to key areas in EDSA.
