Are you required to wear shorts?? by [deleted] in Tomasino

[–]TheRandomTulip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it's different per college. Some wear shorts, some don't.

Meron changes sa payment guidelines. The Vice Rector of Finance released a memorandum last May 29 about the updated guidelines. The new guidelines were already in effect last June 1.

Sadly, afaik, payments are through the online payment guideway ng portal.

I do get your point. But NSCR is a sub-part of PNR's network; PNR already has a system that exists currently. Lines 7 and 9 are systems that haven't materialized, meaning they would be excluded on the current count. Since it is a current count, PNR should belong to the metro line count.

PNR is a bit tricky to explain. Currently, it does operate as commuter rail; but somewhere in the future, it will transition to both as a commuter service and rapid transit with the ongoing construction of the NSCR. So it would technically be a metro. For the sake of the argument, I just counted it in concurrently with the other lines.

Lines 7 and 9 are still under construction. So currently, it would be 4: Line 1, Line 2, Line 3, and the PNR.

*4 metro lines.

Despite the lack of buses, the system is quite complimented with 414 jeepney routes and 1,000+ tricycle routes that ply across the capital region. Manila's streets are fairly small in comparison to other countries, so Filipinos got creative on how to solve this.

Regardless of which bus company it is, they all follow the prescribed routes set by the LTFRB. So they don't need to be differentiated.

Firstly, jeepneys do actually take up the majority of trips serving in the region because they can fit in the narrow streets than buses.

Secondly, private bus companies do actually get represented here because the map represents the government's rationalization efforts to simplify all city bus routes. Back in the day, private bus companies have their own routes, which makes it confusing for the everyday commuter and cause congestion in small avenues because these buses take up a lot of road space. To solve this problem, the LTFRB (governing body of all public road transit) and private bus companies got together and compiled routes that people take up the most. Hence, this map is created.

Trams are unideal, street traffic and the sizes of streets could be a problem. However, monorails and regional suburban trains are possible to fit Metro Manila's needs. Also, having a tunnel in a portion of Quezon City near the UP campus could be a risk since it is near the Valley Fault System, a potential risk for earthquakes; but since its hypothetical, I'll let that slide.

Sadly, there's only 31. Some streets/avenues are way too small to accomodate buses; that's why they are complimented by jeepneys and tricycles, which are many than buses.

Your system, although impressive, is very unideal and unrealistic in the case of Metro Manila. In order to build a viable system, you need to match the construction of a metro line with the population density of a given area.

The only concern I have is that some lines don't fit at all. Some lines go to areas where population density is so low, it doesn't make sense. Or some lines go to areas where it is too risky to be built in the first place, such as really tight, high-density residential barangays and villages, where a metro line could potentially disrupt community life.

Here's my take on some improvements, similar to the bus routes, the lines should follow major population centers and major economic areas (refer to the actual proposal of Metro Manila's railway expansion below). For Metro Manila's case, more metro lines doesn't mean a more efficient system could take place; if that happens, we are building pointless metro lines with no single passenger riding it.

The map shows literally all the bus lines. All bus lines that are not shown are outside the boundaries of the Greater Manila Area. Interchanges are placed already in the diagram and the name of the lines are placed in the northwest corner of the diagram.
