This time, the petition was filed by Albay Rep. Joey Salceda who told the SC that MMDA Regulation No. 19-002, in effect, prohibits the issuance or revokes all permits granted to provincial bus operators to maintain bus terminals and operate their units along EDSA.
Salceda added that the ban is unjust because it shifts the burden of inconvenience to provincial commuters, particularly students and traders and ordinary families with relatives in Metro Manila who will have to transfer to another mode of transport and shell out extra fares. He also stressed several points on how the provincial bus ban would affect and aggravate traffic problem instead of decongesting it.
“There is no single word or syllables in Republic Act No. 7924 that grants MMDA police power, let alone legislative power. Even respondent MMC has not been delegated any legislative power,” the party-list group stressed.
