MANILA, Philippines — The second day of the Iglesia ni Cristo (INC) rally prompted road closures and traffic buildup early Wednesday along EDSA after the religious group secured a rally permit from the Quezon City government.
The Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) closed the EDSA Ortigas northbound service road and White Plains Avenue in both eastbound and westbound directions.
As of its latest traffic monitoring, traffic was moderate to slow moving on the southbound lanes of EDSA from Camp Crame to White Plains.
Northbound traffic was also moderate to slow moving from EDSA Ortigas to White Plains.
The MMDA advised motorists to expect delays in the affected areas, take alternate routes whenever possible, and said traffic personnel remained deployed to manage vehicle flow.
