For the INC, question about your centennial event about traffic in NLEX

I'm waiting for a reply to this as well as i'll be affected but apparently there are no programmed answers to these type of queries maybe? :D

So far i have not seen a schedule online (tried google). NLEX (and beautiful eyes at MMDA) could at least give some suggested travel times based on the schedules instead of just giving a no-brainer "avoid NLEX" routine. I probably will avoid NLEX whole day Saturday and on Sunday morning, late afternoon and evening. Given that the main event is probably during the day then their ingress/egress will most likely be in the early morning and evening. The event place has it's own exit on NLEX northbound but no overpass to the southbound lane so the Bocaue exit will definitely be affected by this.

Shadow, post ka na ng tanong mo dito.

It's a given NLEX would practically be a no-drive-zone this weekend, especially the northbound route.
How far would be the effect of this traffic? Especially sa EDSA?
SM North and Trinoma are technically close to the NLEX egress point. Buhol buhol din kaya doon sa area na yon?
Also, how about those who would be taking a trip south (SLEX)? Affected din kaya yung northbound lanes ng NLEX by late saturday?

Baka hindi lang "Avoid NLEX this weekend" kundi "Avoid any major routes that would lead to NLEX this weekend" ang dapat na maging payo ng MMDA.

3M X 10% = laki kita

I think NLEX shouldn't have allowed the arena to have an entry point at NLEX. Imagine 2-4days hindi magamit ng ibang motorists amg NLEX.

For me it would be okay if they had and NLEX entrance/exit but they should have considered the following:
1. Put a longer access road from NLEX to the facility to keep the toll booth backlogs from overflowing onto NLEX. From what i see, the toll booth is right next to the exit so any buildup might easily spill onto NLEX.
2. Overpass onto the southbound lane to avoid congestion at the Bocaue exit (which already has bad traffic to begin with).

I surely hope they have enough parking to accommodate events (both INC and public events).

Better still if they had just built an exclusive community/subdivision in that area with its own town center, hostels, university, downtown, and the stadium deep within. Then they can hold all the events they like within the confines of that area without inconveniencing others.

If the INC expects a gazillion of their members to attend the event, then they should've built a parking lot huge enough to accomodate a gazillion vehicles.

Now they have two things to brag about.

A world record "big" stadium, with a world record "big" parking lot too.

Parking inside NLEX is like economic sabotage! We do not mind you people have fun and have a good time. But not at the expense of the greater public.
