The U-turn slot located along Epifanio Delos Santos Avenue (EDSA) in General Malvar/Bagong Barrio area shall be closed to vehicular traffic effective January 11, Monday, in line with the Department of Transportation (DOTr)’s EDSA Busway project.
Motorists are advised to take the following detour routes: From northbound going southbound, affected vehicles may take the Monumento Circle or those coming from Quezon City may also take Balintawak Cloverleaf.
The EDSA Busway designates the innermost lane of EDSA as an exclusive lane for public utility buses (PUBs) travelling along the national highway, from Monumento in Caloocan to SM Mall of Asia in Pasay City.
The gradual closure of U-turn slots along EDSA started in September this year.
The MMDA has deferred the closure of the said u-turn slots due to holidays.
To date, the Authority has closed six U-turn slots to give way to the EDSA Busway Project.
