The four secretaries: Mark Villar of DPWH, Arthur Tugade of Department of Transportation, Sec. Pernia of NEDA, and BCDA chief Dizon conducted a press con a Malacanang that highlighted the DU30 effort to ease transportation woes (decongest MM) speed up mobility throughout the nation
Some of the projects mentioned: (approved by NEDA board all ready)
DPWH
1. Linking NLEX and SLEX - this will help decongest EDSA
2. Viaduct in Ateneo to ease Katipunan traffic
3. Bridge linking Cebu and Iloilo
DOTR
1. BRT in EDSA (P37.8 billion project)
2. Fast train between Clark and Manila
3. 600 km train line up to Sorsogon
4. The Cargo train line from Clark to Subic
BCDA
1. Development of Clark into a world class international airport by 2018
2. Green City in Clark
3. Corroboration with DOTr with regards to BRT and the Clark Subic cargo train project.
They said they have been keeping quiet on these projects as medium and long term solution to the traffic problem, MM will be decongested and progress will be relocated to CL (Region 3) as the cargo hub that connects Clark Intl Airport and Subic port will mean cargo will be flowing between Clark and Subic. Thus Central and Northern Luzon will have their own logistic hub instead of going to Manila Port
