Abstract
Epifanio de los Santos Avenue (EDSA) was designed to be a free-flowing road but the problem of congestion is experienced there nowadays. With this, various traffic management schemes have been implemented by the government to resolve, if not, minimized the traffic congestion. One of the new proposed solutions of the government is the removal of provincial buses and its terminal along EDSA. Under this resolution, the provincial buses and its terminal will be placed outside Metro Manila. This study determined the potential effects of the said resolution to the daily commuters and to the bus operator. Survey questionnaires are used to gather data and collect data. The researchers applied Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test to determine if there is a significant difference between two presented cases: current condition and anticipated scenario. Through this, the researchers determined the potential effects of the proposed removal of south provincial buses along EDSA.
