C5 Extension to Kaingin Rd Southbound Is the Biggest Driving Mess in Metro Manila

Any chance that us, wazers, can pull in something with MMDA or the LGU to alleviate the situation along C5 extension>Kaingin Rd Southbound?

It’s a pain to drive along that 500 meter stretch in 30 minutes- starting at C5 extension and ending at the intersection of Multinational Avenue - that’s an average of 1KPH,- because drivers would not be queueing but taking the 2nd and 3rd lanes of C5 ext and would even take the opposite lane (4th).

And then all 4 lanes merge into a single lane further complicated by the bad condition of Kaingin Rd, motorcycles and residents in the area. It’s virtually free-for-all driving there…

If the traffic authorities could block the C5 extension road [approaching Kaingin Rd],- from 3 lanes to 2 lanes, and eventually to a single lane,- then those who are consciously queueing will not be taken advantage by the aggressive; no-concern whatsoever drivers…

Could they just block the intersection of Kaingin Rd and Multinational Avenue and make this a big rotonda? There is a break in the center island near the FlyingV gasoline station where a vehicle going north can make a u-turn and go straight (to go south) or turn right towards Sucat Avenue… There is another break in the island near the Forwarders(don’t let their vehicles park along C5!!!) where a vehicle going south can make a u-turn and go straight(to go north) or turn right to Multinational Village

Anyway, C5 Extension south is a 3-4 lane road one-way so that those who are in C5 Extension have a steady flow of traffic all the time… Just station a couple of traffic enforcer , one each on the u-turns, once there is an overflow of traffic going into the single-lane of Kaingin Rd or the vehicles making the u-turns starts piling up

Where are the bright minds who should be managing this disastrous traffic conditions?
