PAREX - Pasig River Expressway

[viper888]

I have an uncle who was testing his boat on Pasig River

He was eventually stopped by the PSG with guns aimed at him

He was near Malacanang

i wonder,
planchado na ba ang mga rights of way?
or are they going to iron them out as they go along?
because if the latter is the case,
i imagine the real timeline will easily double or triple...

in my opinion,
they should start digging only after rights of way have been solved. para hindi pa-tigil-tigil ang gawa, not to mention protracted traffic issues.
i remember a previous large project. it took more than twice as long as projected, because rights of way were not earlier settled. as a result, extended horrendous traffic was experienced by all.

years ago,
i was abroad, and taking public transport, i.e., their local version surface-level lrt.
one particular station was situated in the literal middle of nowhere.
i asked, "sir, why is there a station here, in the middle of nowhere?"
"sir, we do not want to be accused of bias. our stations are based on distance and not on business establishment."
in fairness, that geographic area had still lots of empty space.
was he pulling my leg?

rewind lang... sabi nagkaroon ng lightbulb moment si ramon ang when he was flying over pasig river tama?

i recall when they were constructing skyways 3 nagkaroon ng delay coz there were property owners who don't wanna sell

(sabi ung sa motel area sa sta mesa correct me if i'm wrong)

so wala choice ang SMC they needed to build on the river nalang to bypass those properties



blessing in disguise

praktisado na ang contractor kayang kaya magtayo ng highway sa ilog

so why not build an entire highway along the river

If the concrete post are in the river isn't the pasig river public property?
Are there right of way issues if you put the concrete post in the river which should be public property?
AFAIK The gov't has the right to destroy any property encroaching on public property.
if any factory or housing that surpasses its area mandated, the gov't can demolish and reclaim it.

noong di matapos tapos ang skyway3 sabi ung delay ay dahil may mga may ari ng property ayaw magbenta

napilitan ang SMC umiwas sa mga property at mag tayo sa ilog

yan ang narinig ko di ko alam kung tama pagkarinig ko

Pinoy tayo, nakaka-hiya maglakad. From the major road, we need a tricycle for the last mile commute..

I'd rather walk than commute. Whenever my officemates and I would have lunch out at the mall they want to take a cab for a 1 kilometer (or even less) distance. It's more on ayaw nila mainitan, ako naman gusto ko naiinitan kasi minsan lang ako maarawan (covered parking ako sa bahay at office) When I had covid I took the Vit D test and in spite of taking tons of supplements, I barely passed sa Vitamin D ko (20 to 30 is low and I am 30.30)

PRE COVID, I always choose covered parking even if it means walking longer and I also don't like switching parking lots often so I would rather walk. Honestly, ngayon ko nga lang narinig yung notion na nakakahiya maglakad
