In an interview with dzBB yesterday, acting MMDA Chairman Romando Artes said there is a proposal suggesting the complete removal of bicycles from EDSA.MANILA, Philippines — The Metropolitan Manila Development Authority is exploring the possibility of removing EDSA’s bicycle lane as part of a study the MMDA is conducting with the Department of Transportation to consider an exclusive motorcycle lane along the highway.
He highlighted concerns over the underutilization of the bicycle lane, with only 1,500 cyclists using it daily compared to 170,000 motorcycles going through EDSA per day. However, Artes acknowledged concerns raised by bicycle advocates regarding the safety of shared lanes. EDSA currently has two exclusive lanes: a bicycle lane beside the sidewalk and the innermost lane for the use of city buses and authorized vehicles.
The exclusive bicycle lanes are currently implemented along Commonwealth Avenue in Quezon City, with another lane for motorcycle riders and a yellow lane for public utility vehicles.
