The Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) will allow provincial buses to use EDSA as an influx of passengers is expected to travel during the Holy Week.
In its Facebook page, MMDA announced that "from April 3 to 5, provincial buses will be allowed on EDSA from 10 pm to 5 am" and 24 hours a day from April 6 to 10.
