‘TIGIL PASADA’ LEAVES BUSY ESPANA BLVD DEVOID OF ‘USUAL HUSTLE AND BUSTLE’

November 20, 2023 • 1 min read

In a bold move against the government’s December 1, 2023 deadline mandating the consolidation of all Public Utility Vehicles (PUVs) into modern jeepneys, the transport group Tigil Pasada initiated a three-day strike, leaving Espana Boulevard eerily devoid of its usual hustle and bustle (featured images).

Supported by Public Utility Jeepney (PUJ) drivers and operators, the protest aims to convey strong opposition to the impending changes in the transport sector.

Capturing the stark impact of the strike, striking photographs reveal the typically vibrant stretch of Espana Blvd. now standing almost empty, symbolizing the united stance of the transport community against the mandated reforms.
