Quezon City Task Force for Transport and Traffic Management (QCTF-TTM) chief Ariel Inton asked motorists to desist from being assisted by non-authorized parking boys near cemeteries in the observance of All Saints’ Day and All Souls Day insisting that they may be penalized for being in the non-parking zones.

Inton issued the call as past incidents point to the illegally parked vehicles as the major cause of traffic congestion near cemeteries during this time.
He noted that “parking barkers let motorists park their vehicles in prohibited areas that have been adding up to the heavy traffic and road obstruction problems during All Saints and All Souls Day observances yearly’’.
“Our QCTF-TTM enforcers are on keen and strict watch over this illegal parking modus this year and beyond. Those who will violate and break our rules will be immediately apprehended as illegally parked vehicles,” said Inton.
He added, “We urge the public to look and inquire our enforcers on the ground on the actual days of Undas on our designated parking spaces on their respective cemeteries.”
“Rest assured that our designated parking spaces were properly labeled with proper signages so that the public will be informed,” Inton continued.
Inton said that self-discipline and adherence to existing traffic rules were the main key to somehow ease traffic congestion around the vicinity of cemeteries and memorial parks, as we remember our departed loved ones this year.
