Cavite residents, rejoice. Traveling to Alabang is now a tad easier.

MetroExpress Point-to-Point Bus Service announced on Monday that they are servicing two newly opened P2P routes covering Cavite and Alabang. The new route will transport passengers from Dasmariñas and Bacoor City to Alabang and vice versa.

A one-way bus ticket costs PHP50 (less than US$1).

Operational from Mondays to Fridays, the first bus departs from Camella Dasmariñas for Starmall Alabang at 5:30am daily. The last bus leaves at 7:30pm.

Here’s hoping the new routes will at least provide a little bit of help Manila’s ever-worsening traffic issues.

With roads congested on a daily basis, there are always long queues outside train stations, not to mention consistent breakdowns of one of the country’s busiest transit lines — the Metro Rail Transit (MRT).

Due to the consistent clamor better transportation services, the Philippine government in 2015 implemented express buses that only make one or two stops along the stretch EDSA, the metro’s main highway.

This eventually led to the point-to-point (P2P) bus service, which doesn’t make stops and actually promises to shave 20 to 30 minutes off passengers’ commute time.
