New Route Adjustment to Shorten MRT-3 Commute
To improve daily travel for commuters, buses traveling between Sapang Palay village in San Jose Del Monte, Bulacan, and SM Fairview in Novaliches, Quezon City, will now be permitted to pick up and drop off passengers along NIA Road during rush hours. This move aims to shorten the distance commuters walk to the nearest Metro Rail Transit Line 3 (MRT-3) station, easing their overall journey.
Benefits for Commuters and Traffic Flow
Local leaders noted that allowing buses to stop on NIA Road provides a more convenient option for passengers who previously had to walk longer distances to access the MRT-3 stations. Moreover, officials reported that this adjustment could help decongest the usual boarding points, especially during peak hours, resulting in smoother traffic flow and less crowding.
Details on Implementation and Schedules
Community members said the new bus stop arrangement will be in effect during rush hours, catering to the highest volume of passengers. Authorities emphasized that this change is part of ongoing efforts to enhance public transportation accessibility and efficiency in the Metro Manila and nearby Bulacan areas.
Expected Impact on Commuter Experience
With buses allowed along NIA Road, commuters can expect shorter walking distances and more direct access to their destinations. This adjustment aligns with broader transportation policies focused on improving convenience and reducing travel time for daily riders using the Metro Rail Transit Line 3 system.
