The Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB) will open the application for special permits for additional bus units to be deployed during the Christmas season.
LTFRB executive director Robert Peig said the board has already coordinated with concerned government agencies for the security and operations in various terminals during the Yuletide season.
“We will simultaneously open the application for special permits to complement the volume of passengers going to the provinces,” Peig said.
The agency is preparing for the “exodus during the holiday season in coordination with the Philippine National Police, the Inter-Agency Council for Traffic, the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority, and local governments units,” he said.
