00:00In a hole in the side of Rojas Boulevard in the middle of Pasay, let's find out if the traffic there is affected.
00:07This Monday, Bam Alegre has the first live news.
00:16Good morning. The box culvert on this side of Rojas Boulevard, southbound lane behind us was damaged.
00:22That's why for the time being, this side of the bike lane and sidewalk will not be used.
00:31As if a hole has appeared on the side of the road, this is the fault of the owner who gave this box culvert on Rojas Boulevard in Pasay.
00:38The sidewalk was also damaged and it also showed a puddle.
00:41Under the road, there is a creek.
00:44The MMDA first covered the damaged box culvert and covered it with an orange plastic barrier so that the motorists will not see it as a disgrace.
00:52The MMDA immediately contacted the Department of Public Works and Highways or DPWH for its compensation.
00:59According to DPWH, in the 1970s, the box culvert was made as a waterway and part of the flood control system in the area.
01:06Due to the increase in structures and the constant passage of heavy trucks, it needs to be compensated.
01:14In fact, in January 2022, a damaged box culvert was also placed here in Rojas Boulevard, southbound.
01:21It was part of the Liberty Pumping Station.
01:24It was closed for six months to be compensated.
01:29You can see the width of the road.
01:33This is the hole.
01:34The hole is really straight.
01:38This is a possible effect of wear and tear on the road.
01:41According to MMDA, almost 2,000 cargo trucks and trailers pass through this part of Rojas Boulevard every day.
