Bawal pa rin! No public transport during modified ECQ, says Palace

By Prince Golez

Any mode of public transportation will still be prohibited in areas under modified enhanced community quarantine (ECQ), Malacañang said.

In a virtual presser Wednesday, Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque said that train systems, buses, jeepneys, taxis, TNVS, and tricycles are still barred during this condition.

On Tuesday, Roque announced that Metro Manila, the province of Laguna, and Cebu City, which are considered to be at high risk for coronavirus infection, will be placed under modified ECQ starting May 16.

“Sa modified ECQ, wala pa rin pong public transportation, pero puwede mag deploy ng mga shuttle buses yung mga industriya na ina-allow na mag trabaho at saka subject sa exceptions sa ibibigay ng DILG tungkol dito,” according to the Palace official.

“Ang mga public shuttle dapat ibigay ng mga kumpanya. Kung pagmamay-ari ng kumpanya wala na kinakailangang permit sa LTFRB, pero kung sila uupa ng shuttle kinakailangangan kumuha ng permit sa LTFRB,” he added.

However, Roque said that public transport will be allowed in areas under general community quarantine at limited capacity.
