Traffic Congestion is a condition on transport networks that occurs as use increases, and is characterised by slower speeds, longer trip times, and increased vehicular queuing. Based on the 2015 Global Satisfaction conducted by Waze, Metro Manila has the “worst traffic on Earth”. Based on the 2015 Census of population by the Philippine Statistic Authority, Metro Manila was listed as being the most dense city in the world based on population density.[1]
Emerson Carlos, MMDA assistant general manager for operation, mentioned that in 2015, the total motor vehicles registered in Metro Manila have already peaked at 2.5 million.[2] This increase of vehicles on the road is one of the major contributing factor that leads to the worsening traffic congestion in Metro Manila.
