MANILA, Philippines – The Metropolitan Manila Development Authority reminded motorists that its Unified Vehicular Volume Reduction Program or number coding was lifted Tuesday and Wednesday as the country celebrates Christmas, a holiday.

In a Twitter post, MMDA said, the number coding was lifted December 24 and 25 in the entire Metro Manila, including cities of Makati and Las Pinas.

Christmas Eve has been declared a non-working holiday, while Christmas day itself is a regular holiday.

The number coding will also be lifted on December 30 for the Rizal Day, a regular holiday; December 31, a special non-working day, as well as January 1.

The scheme is automatically lifted during holidays.
