PHILIPPINE
TRANSPORT
SYSTEM
 INTRODUCTION
 Transport is a key sector in the Philippine economy, linking population
and economic centers across the islands. The transport system of the
Philippines consists of road, water, air, and rail transport.
 Transportation in the Philippines is relatively underdeveloped partly
Philippine due to the country's mountainous terrain and archipelagic state and as a
Transportation result of the government's underspending on infrastructure.
 Improving transport infrastructure is critical for strengthening the
investment climate and enhancing economic growth. The Philippines
has seen modest improvement in the quality of its transport services,
but a large part of the road network remains in poor condition and
intermodal integration is generally weak.
 In recent years however, the Government of the Philippines has been
improving transportation through various infrastructure projects.
LAND
TRANSPORTATION
Roads | Highways | Railways
 The Philippines has 216,612 kilometers (134,596 mi) of roads, with 83%
being paved and 17% being unpaved. As of 2014, the road network consists
of:

 National roads - 32,227 kilometers (20,025 mi)

 Provincial roads - 31,620 kilometers (19,650 mi)
 City and municipal roads - 31,063 kilometers (19,302 mi)

ROADS  Barangay roads - 121,702 kilometers (75,622 mi)

  Road classification is based primarily on
administrative responsibilities (with the
exception of barangays), i.e., which level of
government built and funded the roads.

 Most of the barangay roads are unpaved

village-access roads built in the past by the

ROADS
Department of Public Works and
Highways (DPWH), but responsibility for
maintaining these roads have been
devolved to the Local Government Units
(LGUs).

 Farm-to-market roads fall under this

category, and a few are financed by the
Department of Agrarian Reform and the
Department of Agriculture.
  The extent of the road network in the
Philippines, when measured in terms of
road km per square km, road km per
capita, and road km per dollar of GDP per
capita, is comparable with or better than
many neighboring developing member
countries.

ROADS  However, when the quality of the road

system is considered—both in terms of
the percentage of paved roads and the
percentage of roads in good or fair
condition—the Philippines lags well
behind nearly all of its regional neighbors
and competitors.
  The major cause of the overall low quality of
the road network is poor and inadequate
maintenance.
 This is the result of (i) insufficient financial
resources being made available for
maintenance, and (ii) inadequate institutional
capacity of agencies responsible for road
maintenance.

ROADS
 The high prevalence of overloading of trucks
also contributes to the low quality of the
network.
 Axle-load surveys conducted by the DPWH in
2005 showed that 11%–12% of all trucks were
overloaded. Lax enforcement of axle-load
regulations compounds this problem.
 In addition to the low quality of the road
network, the poor state of repair of much of
the vehicle fleet and inadequate enforcement
of traffic regulations are also major
contributors to the unsatisfactory status of
road transport in the Philippines.
  It is estimated that only about 10% of
road accidents are officially reported,
although these are likely to include many
of the most serious accidents. In 2005,
the national cost of road accidents in the

ROAD Philippines was estimated at $1.9 billion,

equivalent to 2.8% of the country’s GDP.

ACCIDENTS
2005  These figures may underestimate the
severity of the road accident problem,
because in counting road accident deaths
the Philippines uses a definition of death
as occurring within 24 hours of a road
accident, whereas the internationally
accepted definition is death occurring
within 30 days of an accident.
  The poor quality of the road network is
a contributing factor to the rising number
of road accidents. There were 14,794
recorded road accidents in 2008, a 28%
increase from 2007.

ROAD  Deaths from road accidents in the first

ACCIDENTS half of 2009 reached 624, which was 9%
more than in the equivalent period in
2008 - 2009 2008.

 According to the Department of Health,

in 2008 road accidents became the fourth
leading cause of death in the Philippines.
  Highways in the Philippines include
national roads that can be classified into
three types: the national primary,
national secondary and national tertiary
roads.

 The Pan-Philippine Highway is a 3,517 km

HIGHWAYS (2,185 mi) network of roads, bridges, and

ferry services that connect the islands of
Luzon, Samar, Leyte, and Mindanao,
serving as the Philippines' principal
transport backbone.

 The northern terminus of the highway is in

Laoag, and the southern terminus is at
Zamboanga City.
  The Epifanio de los Santos Avenue (EDSA) is
one of the most known highways of the
Philippines, the highway serves the National
Capital Region of the Philippines, also serves as
an important highway in the metropolis.
 The avenue passes through 6 of the 17
settlements in the region, namely, the cities of
Caloocan, Quezon City, Mandaluyong, San Juan,
Makati and Pasay.
HIGHWAYS  EDSA is the longest highway in the metropolis
and handles an average of 2.34 million vehicles.
 Commonwealth Avenue is also an important
highway in the metropolis, it serves the Quezon
City area and has a length of 12.4 km (7.7 mi).
 Other important thoroughfares in Metro Manila
that are part of the Philippine highway network
include España Boulevard, Quezon Avenue, Taft
Avenue, and Alabang–Zapote Road.
  Rail transportation in the Philippines
includes services provided by three rapid
transit lines and one commuter rail line:
the Manila Light Rail Transit System
(Lines 1 and 2), Manila Metro Rail Transit
System (Line 3) and the PNR Metro South
RAILWAYS Commuter Line.

 The government has plans to expand the

country's railway footprint from 77
kilometers as of 2017 to more than 320
kilometers by 2022.
  The Manila Light Rail Transit System or
the LRTA system, is a rapid transit
system serving the Metro Manila area, it
is the first metro system in Southeast
Asia.

RAILWAYS  The system served a total 928,000

passengers each day in 2012.
LRT SYSTEM

 Its 31 stations along over 31 kilometers

(19 mi) of mostly elevated track form two
lines: the original Line 1, and the more
modern Line 2 which passes through the
cities of Caloocan, Manila, Marikina,
Pasay, San Juan and Quezon City.
  The Manila Metro Rail Transit System also
serves Metro Manila. The system is located
along the Epifanio de los Santos Avenue
(EDSA), one of Metro Manila's main
thoroughfares.

 It has 13 stations along its 16.95 km track

form a single line which is the Line 3 which

RAILWAYS passes through the cities of Makati,

Mandaluyong, Pasay and Quezon City.
MRT SYSTEM
 Some of the stations of the system have been
retrofitted with escalators and elevators for
easier access, and ridership has increased.

 By 2004, Line 3 had the highest ridership of

the three lines, with 400,000 passengers
daily.
  Philippine National Railways (PNR)
operates a commuter line that serves a
region from Metro Manila south toward
Laguna.
 PNR, a state-owned railway system of the
Philippines, was established during the
Spanish Colonial period. It used to provide
RAILWAYS services on Luzon, connecting northern and
southern Luzon with Manila.
PNR SYSTEM  In 1988, the railway line to northern Luzon
became disused and later the services to
Bicol were halted although plans to revive
the southern line are around as of 2015.
 Panay Railways is a company that ran rail
lines on Panay until 1989 and Cebu until
World War II.

 Philippines No. of Motor Vehicles: Registered
1981 - 2019 | Yearly | Unit | Land Transportation Office

o Philippines’ No. of Motor Vehicles: Registered data was reported at 12,725,305 unit in
December 2019.
o This records an increase from the previous number of 11,595,434 unit for December 2018.
o Philippines No. of Motor Vehicles: Registered data is updated yearly, averaging 3,700,173
unit from Dec 1981 to 2019, with 39 observations.
o The data reached an all-time high of 12,725,305 unit in 2019 and a record low of 1,006,030
unit in 1981.
o Philippines’s No of Motor Vehicles: Registered data remains active status in CEIC and is
reported by Land Transportation Office.

 Which Philippine region has the most vehicle registrations in 2018?
Earl Lee on Apr 26, 2019

Highlighted in the Report:

o Going deeper into the report reveals that the National Capital
Region (NCR) is home to the most cars in the country. It’s a
shocking revelation we know. It is good to note is that NCR is
also the most densely populated area in the Philippines,
hence it comes as no surprise that the region has the most
vehicles per square kilometer than any other region. With
2,792,936 total vehicles registered in by 2018, it goes to show
that with more people, come more vehicles to register. 

o Coming in second place is Region IV-A or the CALABARZON

region. Provinces such as Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, Rizal, and
Quezon make up this region. The region is home to 1,515,031
motor vehicles at the end of 2018. It is still amazing to think
that Metro Manila alone has almost double the vehicles that
this region has. After the second place, the numbers follow
more closely.

LAND MOTOR
VEHICLES
o A 2019 Asian Development Bank (ADB) study reported that Metro Manila is the "most
congested city" out of 278 cities in developing Asia.

o As of August 2019, the Land Transportation Office reported that the National Capital Region
accounted for the largest number of registered motor vehicles at 1,644,932. Coming second
is its neighboring Region IV-A, with 880,168. These two alone account for almost 40% of the
total 6,783,696 registered vehicles nationwide.

o In 2018, the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) reported that the
average daily volume of cars passing EDSA was 251,628, dwarfing public utility buses that
averaged 13,356.

o Public utility buses comprised only 3% of total traffic along EDSA in 2017. Private cars took up
CHOKEPOINT. Bumper to bumper traffic is seen along EDSA
67% of road space. However, that did not stop the MMDA from implementing a provincial bus near Cubao, Quezon City. Photo by Darren Langit/Rappler

TRAINS / RAILWAY SYSTEM

o Metro Manila has 4 operational railway systems: Light Rail Transit (LRT)
lines 1 and 2, the Metro Rail Transit 3 (MRT), and the Philippine National
Railways (PNR).

o LRT1 has been operational for 35 years; MRT, 20 years; and LRT2, 16 years.

o Some of the train cars being deployed today have been there since they
first opened.

o In 2017, there were 516 MRT problems recorded – almost 10 a week. Of

this number, 449 were offloading incidents, where passengers had to
alight the trains and walk along MRT tracks.

o In early 2018, the MRT suffered almost daily breakdowns.

TRAINS / RAILWAY SYSTEM

o The PNR has been known to cancel trips without prior notification to the
public. Many of the canceled trips are along the Tutuban – Alabang –
Tutuban route, the most in-demand of all.

o Data from the Department of Transportation show that an average of

276,128 passengers board the MRT every day.

o Meanwhile, the PNR had more than a million passengers in January this
year.

o Train authorities have set policies allowing free rides for students. Stations
are also compelled to allot special cars or lanes for women, students,
persons-with-disabilities (PWDs), elderly passengers, and pregnant women.

Root problems & economic costs

o A 2012 ADB study identified the main challenges the Philippine transportation faced:

 Poor quality of road network

 Poor intermodal integration
 Weak sector governance and institutional capacity
 Lack of quality urban transport systems
 Limited private investment in transport infrastructure

o In 2014, a Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) study projected the economic cost of traffic in Metro Manila to reach up to P6
billion daily by 2030 – if the situation continues.

o In 2018, the House of Representatives passed a bill seeking to grant emergency powers to the DOTr secretary to address the urban traffic
problem. No counterpart measure prospered in the Senate. DOTr withdrew its request, made on behalf of President Rodrigo Duterte, last
September 23.
 MMDA reports an all-time high of 121,771 road accidents in 2019
Resulting in 394 recorded fatalities throughout the year
Leandre Grecia | Feb 24, 2020

o The Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) has already

released the full Metro Manila Accident Reporting and Analysis System
(MMARAS) annual report for 2019, so it’s time to see how much safer or
more dangerous the roads in the metro have become over the past year.

o In 2018, a total of 116,906 incidents were reported, representing an

increase of 6.25% from the year prior. In 2019, the total of reported
incidents rose to 121,771, representing a year-on-year increase of 4.16%. On
average, there were 334 reported accidents per day, with one resulting in
fatality, 56 being non-fatal, and 276 leading to damages to property.

o For the whole of 2019, 372 incidents with fatalities were tallied—down from
383 in the previous year. But as in 2018, there were still 394 recorded deaths
from these incidents with fatalities. Meanwhile, there were 20,466 non-
fatal accidents, and 100,933 road mishaps that incurred damages to
property.
 MMDA reports an all-time high of 121,771 road accidents in 2019

Leandre Grecia | Feb 24, 2020

o Cars and motorcycles had the highest involvement in last

year’s reported road incidents, accounting for 118,552 and
35,006 involved vehicles, respectively. There were more
motorcycle-related deaths, however, with 234 reported
fatalities. You can refer to the list below for a better look:

o Meanwhile, the most accident-prone thoroughfare was EDSA

with 17,382 recorded incidents, followed by C5 (8,735) and
Commonwealth Avenue (4,998). Among the three, however,
C5 remains the deadliest road in Metro Manila with 31
reported fatalities.
WATER
TRANSPORTATION
Waterways | Ferry Services | Ports & Harbors
  Interisland water transport is a very important
subsector of the national transport system.
There are about 1,300 ports, of which about
1,000 are government-owned and the rest are
privately owned and managed.
 Of the government-owned ports, about 140 fall
under the jurisdiction of the Philippine Ports
Authority (PPA) and the Cebu Ports Authority;
WATER the remainder are the responsibility of other
government agencies or local government units.
TRANSPORT  International cargo and container traffic has
grown steadily in recent years, supported by
significant investments in the port of Batangas
by the PPA and in the port of Subic by the Subic
Bay Metropolitan Authority.
 Despite growth in both the economy and the
population, passenger traffic on domestic
interisland shipping services fell by about 13%
between 2003 and 2008.
  Interisland shipping continues to suffer from a
poor reputation for safety, with an average of
160 maritime accidents annually.

 The causes of maritime accidents include

human error; natural causes, such as typhoons,
bad weather, and rough seas; lack of vessel
WATER traffic management; lack of navigational aids;
and poor ship maintenance.
TRANSPORT
ACCIDENTS  Natural causes were the main causes of
maritime accidents, comprising 36% of the
total incidents recorded.

 Accidents caused by human error were also a

major contributor, comprising 24% of all
recorded accidents.
 To address this deficiency, the Maritime Industry
Authority is embarking on a number of safety
programs during 2012 – 2013, including
 a vessel retirement and replacement program
 nationwide mobile registration, licensing, and
franchising of motor Banca's (wooden double
outriggers)
WATER  nationwide revalidation of ships’
TRANSPORT documentation
 pilot implementation of an audit-based ship
ACCIDENTS inspection system
 enhancement of competence of technical
personnel
 implementation of the categorization of
navigational areas
 a review of safety policies
 nationwide revalidation of crew documents
  In recent years, there has been significant
development of roll-on roll-off (ro-ro) ferry
services, which are aimed at providing an
alternative to traditional long-distance
interisland shipping services.
 The ro-ro system allows vehicles to drive onto

FERRY and off ro-ro ferries without loading or

offloading of cargo.

SERVICES  Because this eliminates cargo-handling labor

and equipment, and reduces the amount of
time cargo is required to be in port, reductions
in sea transport costs can be considerable.
 In 2003, the Government of the Philippines
issued a policy to promote ro-ro. This was
manifested in the opening of the government’s
Strong Republic Nautical Highway Program.
  The Strong Republic Nautical Highway is
composed of three major trunk lines: the
western, eastern, and central nautical
highways.
 These three major lines consist of 12 main
routes served by different shipping operators.

FERRY  This program has not only linked the country’s

major island groups of Luzon, Visayas, and
SERVICES Mindanao, but it has also had positive effects
on the economies of the smaller islands along
the major routes.
 The ro-ro policy has had a major positive
impact, derived from the significant reduction
in transport costs. The principal sources of
savings have been the elimination of cargo
handling charges and wharf age fees.
 As a result of the opening of the nautical highways,
 goods are being shipped more efficiently
 transport costs have been reduced
 new interisland and regional links are being created
 regional markets have expanded

FERRY  tourism has benefited

 local area development is being accelerated
SERVICES  logistics practices are changing
 the domestic shipping industry is restructuring and
becoming more competitive
The growth of ro-ro services may have contributed to the
decline in both freight and passenger traffic on
conventional interisland shipping services. It is estimated
that the use of ro-ro offers a saving of about 12 hours in
travel time between Mindanao and Luzon, and a reduction
of about 30% in the cost of freight transport and 40% in
the cost of passenger transport.
  Port facilities to accommodate ro-ro vessels have
been built or rehabilitated under the program, with 42
ro-ro vessels operating on routes between these ports.
 However, these 42 vessels are run by some 25 shipping
operators, which may suggest that the structure of the
ro-ro subsector is fragmented.

PORTS  While ro-ro facilities are already in place in some ports,

prioritization of the development, construction, and

FACILITIES
rehabilitation of ro-ro ports is hampered by the need
for massive capital outlays.
 Therefore, the PPA is working to facilitate private
sector participation in the provision of passenger
terminal buildings and ro-ro terminal services so that
these needs can be met without creating an excessive
burden on government resources.
 The PPA is fast-tracking the finalization of policies that
allow private sector participation in the provision of
these buildings and services.
AIR
TRANSPORTATION
Airports | Airlines
 PHILIPPINE AIRPORTS
 There are 215 airports in the Philippines, of
which 84 are government-owned and controlled
and the rest are privately owned and operated. Government
owned
39% Private owned
 Of the government-controlled airports, 10 are
designated as international airports, 15 are 61%
Principal Class 1 airports, 19 are Principal Class 2
airports, and 40 are community airports.
AIR  The busiest airport in the Philippines is Ninoy
Aquino International Airport (NAIA) in Manila,
TRANSPORT which handled 435,486 aircraft movements and GOVERNMENT OWNED
an estimated 29.6 million passengers in 2011. AIRPORTS
 Mactan International Airport in Cebu is the
second-busiest airport in the country with International
82,554 aircraft movements and 6.3 million 12% Class 1
passengers in 2011. Domestic passenger traffic Class 2
at NAIA has been growing at almost 10% per 18% Community
48%
annum since 2000.
23%
  The growth of domestic freight traffic has been
much less at about 2.4% per annum.
 Given the growth of both international and
domestic air traffic through NAIA in recent
years, serious capacity constraints are likely to
emerge before long.
 To address this, the government has plans to
AIR further develop Diosdado Macapagal
International Airport, formerly Clark
TRANSPORT International Airport, as an alternative
international gateway serving central Luzon.
 These plans will need to be closely coordinated
with those for the development of NAIA, and
they will need to include consideration of
appropriate land transport connections between
Diosdado Macapagal International Airport and
Metro Manila.
  Philippine Airlines (PAL) is the national
flag carrier of the Philippines and is the
first commercial airline in Asia. Philippine
Airlines remains as the country's biggest
airline company, it has the largest
number of international flights to the
Philippines as well as domestic flights.
AIRLINES  As of 2013, Philippine Airlines flies to 8
domestic and 58 international
destinations in 33 countries and
territories across Asia, North America,
South America, Africa, Oceania and
Europe. The airlines operates hubs in
Clark, Manila, Cebu, and Davao.
  Cebu Pacific is the low fare leader in the
country, and is the country's leading domestic
airline, flying to 37 domestic destinations.
Since the launching of its international
operations in November 2001, flies to 27
destinations in 15 countries and territories
across Asia and Oceania. As of 2013, the
AIRLINES airline operates hubs in Manila, Cebu and
Davao.

 Other low-cost carriers in the country include

Cebgo, PAL Express, and Philippines
AirAsia. These airlines have routes to several
tourist destinations in the country.
