Traffic in Filinvest Alabang in Muntinlupa crawled to a standstill on Saturday night after the major roads were closed to give way to a fun run.

Vehicles tried to scurry around looking for routes only to run into road blocks.

Traffic aides ere around to redirect traffic but the major arteries remained clogged.

Understandably, this left some motorists fuming, including this writer.

One can’t buy wonder how a fun run is allowed on a busy Saturday evening in a southern development with huge malls, office buildings and residential villages such as Ayala Alabang that are among the biggest in the metropolis. /atm
