LTFRB approves new route for Muntinlupa jeepneys

Published Jun 2, 2022 09:54 am

The Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB) has approved a resolution modifying a route in Muntinlupa to allow jeepneys to reach a government housing project.

In September 2020, the LTFRB approved memorandum circular 2020-046 creating additional routes for jeepneys in Metro Manila under the general community quarantine (GCG).

In the circular, jeepneys were originally allowed to operate along the route from Alabang to the New Bilibid Prison (NBP) Reservation and Katarungan Village.

“Katarungan Village Homeowners Association Inc., made numerous requests and representations to the Board relative to their concern on PUVs entering their village contributing to the noise and air pollution, as well as adversely affecting the cleanliness and orderliness of the community and posing threat to the security of the residents,” according to LTFRB Resolution 111 approved on May 23.

It added, “On the other hand, requests were also made to modify the route of Public Utility Vehicles (PUVs) in the area due to the closure of a portion of Bilibid Road as implemented by the Bureau of Corrections.”

Last November, the BuCor closed a road inside the NBP Reservation leading to the Katarungan Village.

According to the LTFRB, last Feb. 24, the “Katarungan Village Homeowners Association, Inc. and LTFRB-NCR held a meeting and agreed to create a proposed modified route for any PUV traversing the route inside the village that is not included in their approved route structure.”

The new route allowed by the LTRFB will no longer traverse inside the NBP Reservation but go around and use the Daang Hari Road in Las Pinas to reach Katarungan Village.

In the latest resolution, the LTFRB stated, "Now therefore, for and in consideration of the foregoing, to ensure the viability of the operations of the Hustisya Transport Service Cooperative and to formally address the issues and concerns of Katarungan Village Homeowners Associations Inc., the Board hereby allows the PUVs to operate their traditional PUJs on the requested modified route - Alabang - Muntinlupa via Manila S Rd, Daang Hari Road."

The new approved route is “New Bilibid Prison Gate Bilibid Rd - Katihan Rd - Manila S Rd- Starmall Alabang Terminal - Manila S Rd - Old West Service Rd - Alabang-Zapote Rd - Bridgeway Ave - Alabang-Zapote Rd - Investment Dr - Daang Hari Rd - Katarungan Village Gate 2.”

Under this, jeepneys are allowed up to the Katarungan Village Gate 2 only located along Daang Hari Road. They are not allowed to enter Katarungan Village.
