DOTr RELENTLESS IN GIVING FREE RIDE TO HEALTH WORKERS

LIFESTYLE ON WHEELS

The Department of Transportation together with the Land Transportation Office (LTO) and the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB), help frontliners ease the commute with a free ride. This initiative is not only delivered in the National Capital Region (NCR), but also in other regions of the country.

Last May 07, 2020, a total of 656,354 ridership, of which 131,335 total in the Metro Manila and 525,019 in other parts of regions, was recorded. With the help of digital technology available such as GPS and Google Maps, Live location and tracking can be monitored to assist commuters and frontliners. This was made possible with the strong department’s coordination with PLDT Enterprise, and Vectras Inc.

  1. Definitely consider that that you said. Your favorite justification appeared to
    be on the net the simplest thing to bear in mind of.
    I say to you, I definitely get annoyed whilst folks consider concerns that
    they just don’t realize about. You controlled to hit the nail upon the top and also defined out the whole thing
    without having side effect , other people can take a signal.

    Will likely be back to get more. Thanks
