A UV Express group appeals to the government to bring back more units on the road.
— A UV Express group appealed to the government to bring back more units on the road, as the 980 vehicles allowed to ply their routes in Metro Manila and nearby provinces starting Monday cannot accommodate hundreds of thousands of passengers still in need of transportation.
For the group, the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board has set"unfair" and"unjust" policy directions. 980 units can only ferry about 10,000 passengers a day. There are many routes not included in the LTRFB-approved routes," Marable said. "We are willing to remove the 'jump seat' to prevent crowding of passengers inside the vehicle," Marable said."During the Covid Pandemic, we are willing to reduce the passengers from 18 to just 9."
Marable also reasoned that the implementation of a number coding scheme will at least help UV Express operators and drivers earn money to feed their families.
