00:00The traffic is getting heavier in Metro Manila a few days before Christmas.
00:06And live from Edsa Mandaluyong, this is Jamie Santos.
00:11Jamie?
00:16Pia, a cold head, a long patience and a strong body.
00:20That's what we should have this Saturday, the last weekend before Christmas
00:25because from earlier until this afternoon, the traffic is heavy.
00:31It's past 2 o'clock in the afternoon when we started to cross the Edsa Northbound.
00:37The road is still wide before the Quezon Avenue flyover arrives.
00:41But when the flyover of Quezon Avenue arrives, the traffic starts.
00:46The cars are slow moving until the flyover comes down.
00:50There's a point where the car will stop for a few minutes.
00:54The cars are even slower when they arrive at the next mall in North Edsa.
00:59Because of the cars that enter and exit the mall.
01:03Some are even stopping the traffic to earn money.
01:07When the mall passes, the traffic will spread from Munoz to Balintawak.
01:12When it comes to the southbound, the traffic runs bumper to bumper.
01:16Because some motorists also enter the mall in Munoz.
01:20There's a part of the northbound and southbound of Edsa that is moderate to fast moving.
01:26But it's slower when it comes to Green Hills or Tigas, Mandaluyong because of the U-turn slot towards the mall.
01:32In the area of Guadalupe, the traffic is wide.
01:35It's just slower when it comes to the May area of Pasay.
01:43In these hours, here in our location, here in May and in Mandaluyong,
01:48the traffic is still heavy, especially in front of the mall.
01:53And the slow-moving traffic, the cars are driving straight to Edsa North.
01:59And that's the latest from here in Mandaluyong back to Eupea.
02:04Thank you very much, Jamie Santos.
