No number coding on Thursday

MANILA, Philippines—The Metro Manila Development Authority announced Tuesday that the number-coding scheme for motorists would be lifted on Independence Day, June 12.

In a twitter post, the MMDA said this would be in effect in all cities in Metro Manila this Thursday.

Aiming to ease the traffic in the Metro Manila, the MMDA enforces a number coding scheme banning vehicles on major roads in the metropolis depending on the last digit of their license plates.

MMDA, however, said the number coding scheme is customarily lifted during holidays.
