The Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) warned motorists and commuters of heavier traffic in Quezon City with the closure of several roads due to construction of Metro Rail Transit (MRT) 7 under the government’s “Build, Build, Build” program.
Frisco San Juan Jr., MMDA Deputy Chairman, said MRT 7’s private contractors will begin working on back-to-back infrastructure projects in different locations next week.
On April 30, a coping beam will be constructed along Regalado Highway that would close westbound lane. The eastbound lane will remain open for passing motorists.
One-way traffic will be implemented on Regalado Highway from Mindanao Avenue up to Commonwealth Avenue.
With the coordination of MRT 7 Traffic Management Task Force, San Juan said private contractors will also start working on the MRT Tandang Sora station at the Tandang Sora intersection-Commonwealth Avenue on May 1, Labor Day.
“They will begin laying the foundation for a number of posts that will close three lanes on both southbound and northbound of Commonwealth Avenue,” said San Juan, in a press briefing on Thursday.
The project also involves the construction of elevated guide way, demolition of existing flyover, and provision for future north and southbound flyover. It will last up to a year.
Also on May 1, MRT’s private contractors will begin digging up for a tunnel along North Avenue to Commonwealth Avenue.
For this project, San Juan said two lanes along North Avenue will be closed to vehicular traffic. The construction of underground guide way will last up to eight months.
On May 6, MRT 7’s private contractor is set to install box girders for the MRT’s rail track along Regalado Highway.
During the said activity, Regalado Highway from Mindanao to Commonwealth Avenue will be totally closed to traffic from 10 pm up to 5 am.
