LIST: UV Express routes to resume operations in Metro Manila starting June 29
MANILA, Philippines — The Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board on Saturday confirmed that a total of 980 UV Express vans plying to and from Metro Manila and nearby provinces will initially be allowed to operate in 47 routes beginning Monday.
LTFRB Chairman Martin Delgra said the deployment of UV Express units does not remove the possibility of later allowing modern and traditional jeepneys to augment their operations depending on passenger demand.
He appealed to UV Express drivers and operators to strictly comply with regulations under LTFRB Memorandum Circular 2020-25, including the guideline that "UV express routes shall be terminal-to-terminal, maintain no pick up and drop off of passengers, and not pass through nor traverse EDSA and Commonwealth Avenue, except to cross."
Delgra also said that the existing fare rate of P2 per kilometer remains in effect and that no fare adjustment will be applicable unless approved by the LFTRB.
Violators may face fines and suspension or cancellation of their franchise.
Other guidelines include regular examination by operators of their drivers' fitness to work (including checking their body temperature and screening for COVID-19 symptoms), wearing of masks and gloves at all times by drivers and conductors, requiring commuters to wear masks and pay the exact fare before boarding UV Express units, imposing a passenger limit of only two per row and one seat apart and installation of impermeable barriers to "seal off the driver’s compartment and between rows of seats that are less than one meter apart."
