DURING the presidential debates, the candidates were asked how they would solve Metro Manila’s traffic mess, especially on EDSA. I heard answers ranging from improving the services of our Mass Transit System, adding more coaches on MRT and LRT lines, more point-to-point BRT services, restricting the use of private cars on certain hours in certain areas, building more roads like C-6, etc. These are solutions but they provide only palliatives. Constructing C-6 may help but like C-5, it would be just as congested as EDSA as soon as it is finished.
Just like the bridge-tunnel across Tokyo Bay
