Angeles City Mayor Carmelo “Pogi” Lazatin Jr. said five buses are on standby for the city hall workers and the public in case the “Tigil Pasada” nationwide transport strike pushes through beginning on October 16, 2023.
Mayor Lazatin said five Philippine Rabbit buses will be readied in strategic areas in Angeles City to ferry the riding public for free in case of a transport strike.
The free ride will begin from 5 AM to 12 midnight, following five routes:𝑪𝒖𝒕𝒖𝒅-𝑺𝒂𝒑𝒂𝒏𝒈 𝑴𝒂𝒊𝒔𝒂𝒄 𝒃𝒐𝒖𝒏𝒅𝒂𝒓𝒚
𝑩𝒂𝒍𝒊𝒃𝒂𝒈𝒐-𝑫𝒂𝒖 𝒃𝒐𝒖𝒏𝒅𝒂𝒓𝒚

The nationwide transport strike is poised to be held starting on October 16, 2023 by transport group MANIBELA, to protest against the government’s public utility vehicle (PUV) modernization program which they said would affect the livelihood of public utility drivers.
Meanwhile, Mayor Lazatin has encouraged City Hall employees to “practice carpooling” in anticipation of the nationwide strike.
