Show Notes
Leading urban transport expert Benjie de la Peña lauds recent improvements in Metro Manila, but advocates for a coordinated system of public transport as he discusses ways to connect buses, trains, jeepneys and even ferries on the Pasig River. Popular transport like tricycles and pedicabs all have a place in the system as long as their roles and routes are clear. And he's urging policy makers to occasionally get out of their cars, which he says have "colonized our roads."
