The Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) released its traffic rerouting plan in Quezon City for the last State of the Nation Address (SONA) of President Benigno Aquino III.
The MMDA will deploy 1,200 personnel to manage both vehicular and pedestrian traffic and support the operations of the National Capital Region Police Office (NCRPO) and the Quezon City Police District (QCPD).
From 3am on Mon, Jul 27, the stretch of Commonwealth Avenue northbound from Ever Gotesco to St. Peter Church will be closed to traffic.
A zipper lane will be opened at the southbound lane of Congressional Avenue from Jocfer Building to the Commission on Audit for northbound vehicles.
Motorists are advised to avoid the affected areas and take the following alternate routes to avoid any inconvenience:
- Along North Avenue, take Mindanao Avenue, turn right to Quirino Highway to destination and vice versa.
- Along Edsa, turn right to Congressional Avenue, turn left to Mindanao Avenue, turn right to Old Sauyo Road, straight to Don Julio Gregorio and Republic Avenue, turn left to Chestnut, turn right to Dahlia Avenue, turn left to Fairlane or Regalado Avenue to destination and vice versa.
