MMC pushes single ticketing system in Metro Manila
MANILA, Philippines — The Metro Manila Council will prioritize the implementation of a unified ticketing system in the National Capital Region to harmonize the payment of fines over traffic violations committed by motorists, newly installed MMC president and San Juan Mayor Francis Zamora announced yesterday.
Zamora expressed belief that the single ticketing system would help ease traffic congestion in Metro Manila.
The MMC, which is the policy-making body of the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA), is composed of 17 mayors in the region.
Under the unified ticketing scheme, Zamora said the MMDA and Land Transportation Office would tag the digital records of erring motorists to make sure that they could not renew their licenses.
Violators may pay their fines online through payment centers.
“We are hoping this will help ease traffic jams in Metro Manila. Of course, several other steps must be undertaken for a more holistic and progressive approach to solve traffic woes in the metropolis,” Zamora said.
