The DOTr officials as quoted as saying: “The decision to transfer is in line with the unwavering efforts of the government to decongest Metro Manila, reduce travel time, improve travel of motorists and help boost development in its peripheries.”
The agency expects to end the whole relocation by the end of 2017.
