Department of Transportation (DOTr) Secretary Arthur P. Tugade today ordered the activation of Oplan Biyaheng Ayos: UNDAS 2017, directing all DOTr offices and attached agencies to be on heightened alert to ensure the safety and security of passengers travelling during Undas.
Oplan Biyaheng Ayos: UNDAS 2017 will be implemented from October 30 – November 6, at which time all transportation agencies are ordered to carry out 24/7 operations in terms of providing assistance to motorists and passengers.
All transport terminals, booths, and counters must be manned at all times during the monitored travel period to ensure safety of passengers as well as prevent long queues and other untoward incidents. The concerned offices and agencies were also directed to communicate accidents and emergencies in real time and keep all hotlines and feedback mechanisms operational and adequately manned.
Public advisories such as safety tips, common types of violations at expressways, and safety and security regulations in airports, seaports, and other transportation hubs shall be issued. Tarpaulins bearing emergency and hotline numbers will be posted in conspicuous areas of the agency’s jurisdiction.
DOTr attached agencies and offices were also instructed to submit a post-Undas report for evaluation.
