Congressman wants subdivisions to open roads to ease metro traffic

We don’t know how subdivision residents will feel about this.

“Cagayan de Oro City Rep. Rufus Rodriguez, has authored a bill, which seeks to open major private subdivision roads in Metro Manila to motorists to ease traffic congestion,” reports Jess Diaz in The Philippine Star.

Rodriguez believes that opening subdivision roads would “ease traffic gridlocks in Metro Manila have worsened in the last 15 years.”

The report said that “the bill would apply to all housing subdivisions and villages situated in Metro Manila.” The report further explained that “a subdivision or village situated within Metro Manila would be required to open for public use at least one road within its boundaries to vehicular traffic.”
