MANILA, Philippines — The Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) suspended the number coding for motorists, except in Makati and Las Pinas, Friday.
Under the traffic scheme, vehicles with plate numbers ending in 0 and 9 are not allowed to travel around the metropolis on Fridays.
In its advisory, the MMDA said that as of 6:04 a.m., Araneta Avenue and Quezon Avenue in Quezon City were not passable.
The heavy rains are spawned by Tropical Storm “Mario” which continues to intensify as it moves toward northern Luzon, packing winds of 85 kilometers per hour near the center and gusts of up to 100 kph.
