On the same study conducted by JICA, the Government should implement several
strategies in order to solve the traffic congestion in Metro Manila.
a) Controlled creation and development of urban centers.
- Commercial developments should be initiated not just in Metro Manila
but also in the North Regional Growth Center (Subic-Clark-Tarlac),
South Regional Growth Center (Batangas and Lucena), North Subregional Growth Center (Bulacan) and South Sub-regional Growth
Center (Cavite-Laguna).
b) Development of new gateway ports
- Further enhancements should be made on the major seaports of Subic,
Batangas and Lucena. Moreover, NAIA and Clark should be developed
and be interlinked. Accessibility of the Clark International Airport is also
impliedly mentioned.
c) Re-orienting the road network structure of Metro Manila
- This means further development of existing radial-circumferential
system (e.g. C5) and expressways and railways to connect the North to
South.
The study offers specific suggestions on how we convert Metro Manila as a worldclass urban city and make it free from traffic congestion. The challenge is how these
plans should be implemented and how we get the adequate support from the
Government, the Private Sector and the general public.
