Heads up motorists.
The Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) advised motorists to take other routes in order to avoid being caught in slow traffic as it announced its weekly road reblocking along Epifanio Delos Santos Avenue (EDSA) and other roads in Quezon City.
In a statement, the DPWH said the road reblocking will start at 11 p.m. on Friday, July 22.
The areas where the road rehabilitation will occur are segments of EDSA Northbound: along Santolan MRT Station, bus lane; after P. Tuazon flyover to Aurora Tunnel, 3rd lane from center island (fast lane); after Aurora Boulevard to New York Street, 3rd lane from center island (intermittent section); and after Kamuning Road and Kamias Road to JAC Liner Bus Station, beside center island in Quezon City.
“The same road section along EDSA Southbound, from Balingasa Creek to Oliveros Footbridge in Quezon City, will be closed for the continuation of repair works,” the statement read.
Other roads in Quezon City that will undergo similar repair works include: Fairview Avenue Southbound, near Mindanao Avenue Extension, 1st lane from center island; Cloverleaf (CHN.000 – CHN 258) going to NLEX Northbound; and Cloverleaf (CHN.000 – CHN 234) going to NLEX Southbound.
