“Nagkaroon ng advisory ang DPWH. Timing nila na Holy Week. Iyong mga kalsada kinakailangan nang palitan o kaya iyong mga sira-sira na magiging dangerous o hazardous sa mga motorista natin,” said Rodel Luces, QCTTMD Supervisor.

Officials said one southbound lane was expected to reopen later this afternoon, which could ease the congestion in the area. However, another round of reblocking is also scheduled on Thursday, this time at the northbound underpass of Mindanao Avenue.

“Medyo nabigla iyong iba (motorista), pero nag-advise naman po kami na almost 1 week na rin nagkaroon ng advisory ito. Iyong iba wala namang ano, at least daw may tao (traffic enforcers),” Luces added.
