Charging extra 2012-01-11 01:25:21
By Mike Frialde and Rainier Allan Ronda The Philippine Star Updated January 03, 2012 12:00 AM
Melenco Vargas, president of 1-UTAK, said the conversion of EDSA into a tollway would be similar to a scheme practiced in Singapore, wherein motorists are charged upon entering a designated zone in business districts during peak hours.
He said the proceeds of the toll should be used to maintain EDSA, upgrade the Metro Rail Transit and perhaps for the construction of a “second level” of the highway.
Vargas said there should also be a parallel effort to develop alternate routes for those who do not want to pay the toll.
