In an interview, LTFRB Chair Winston Ginez also countered: \u201cTo blame the LTRFB memo for the sudden increase, we think, is stretching things too much. These trucks have already been on the road before the LTFRB issued the memo.\u201d<\/p>\n\n
Ginez reiterated that the no-apprehension policy was meant to give truck operators more time to comply, given the crucial services they render in transporting goods from the ports.<\/p>\n\n
He noted that the policy covered trucks with so-called green plates and that the extension would give them time to comply with the board\u2019s franchising regulations so they could again operate on national roads.<\/p>\n\n
It was not the first time that the MMDA and LTFRB appeared out of sync. Last week, the MMDA warned the public of traffic getting heavier on Edsa after the board reportedly allowed provincial buses to again pass through the highway to reach their terminals within the capital.<\/p>\n\n
Tolentino then said he was not consulted about the LTFRB\u2019s move which, according to him, added about 2,000 buses in one stroke to Edsa\u2019s daily traffic volume.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
