Philippines Transport Situation

• 5.9 million registered vehicles
in 2008
• Motorization is increasing at
6% per year, with motorcycles/
tricycles driving growth with
11.6%
• Road subsector dominates
both passenger (98%) and
freight traffic (58%) in 2006

4


Metro Manila Transport Situation

• Covers 636 km2 including 16
cities and 1 municipality
• About 30% of all vehicles are
registered in Metro Manila
• Served by 3 light-rail and 1
heavy rail (commuter) with a
combined ridership reaching
about a million riders per day
• Dominated by several public
transport modes, including
buses, jeepneys, megataxis, and
tricycles, which are not
integrated

5


Urban Transport Challenges

 Cities are growing (size and population)
 Motorization rapidly increasing
 Congestion increasing
 Local pollution worsening
 GHG emissions
 Safety worsening
 Oil dependence
 Policies failing to keep up
 Quality of life deteriorating

Presidential Administrative Order No. 254
-Formulation of a National Environmentally
Sustainable Transport Strategy for the Philippines -

Overall Goal of the
National Strategy:

 Reduction of the annual growth rate of energy consumption
and air pollution and associated GHG emissions from the
transport sector in urban areas of the country

 Mainstream environmentally sustainable transport
(EST), which involves, among others, the promotion of
transportation systems of low carbon intensity and shift towards
the use of more sustainable transport modes
