New roads added to number coding scheme

EDSA and C5 were recently removed from the list of places with number coding window — meaning you may no longer ply these roads from 7AM to 8PM straight while your vehicle is under coding. The list just got longer with the addition of new roads as announced by the Department of Transportation (DOTr) in a statement.

The roads with no window hours include the following:

1. Recto Avenue
2. President Quirino Avenue
3. Araneta Avenue
4. CP Garcia
5. Taft Avenue
6. SLEX
7. Shaw Boulevard
8. Ortigas Avenue
9. Magsaysay Boulevard
10. Aurora Boulevard
11. Quezon Avenue
12. Commonwealth Avenue
13. A. Bonifacio Avenue
14. Rizal Avenue
15. Del Pan
16. Marcos Highway
17. MacArthur Highway
18. C-6 Road

“The extended coding hours and expanded coverage of the ‘no window hours’ policy are aimed to decongest traffic flow and reduce volume of vehicles on national roads in Metro Manila,” said the DOTr.

This implementation will begin on November 1 in an attempt to decongest the road; More so with the Christmas season coming up.
