Long weekend could prompt heavier traffic with coding suspension

MMDA to suspend number coding scheme tomorrow

MANILA: The Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) will suspend the number coding scheme tomorrow, in light of the upcoming Labor Day. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • What holiday are we observing tomorrow?

    Tomorow is Labor Day.
  • What last-digit plate numbers are supposedly prohibited from using major Metro Manila thoroughfares tomorrow?

    Tomorrow, a Friday, plate numbers ending in 9 and 0 are supposedly affected by the number coding scheme.
  • With the holiday giving way to a long weekend, the suspension could mean heavier traffic as more motorists could take advantage of the three-day break. 

    Other stories:

    Tomorrow, which is Friday, vehicles with plate numbers ending in 9 and 0 are supposedly prohibited from using major thoroughfares in Metro Manila.

    However, due to the suspension of the coding scheme, automobiles with number plates ending in the said digits will be allowed to travel along major routes in the metro without being flagged and apprehended by enforcers.
