MANILA, Philippines — Transport advocacy network The Passenger Forum on Friday lauded the announcement of the Department of Transportation to upgrade the Pasig River Ferry but expressed concern over its compatibility with the Pasig River Expressway or PAREX.

 

This comes after the DOTr said it was eyeing the rehabilitation of the river ferry service under the leadership of Transportation Secretary Jaime Bautista, who said the department was targeting the completion of the feasibility study for the upgrade "as soon as possible."

 

Commuter groups have long been pushing for the expansion of the Pasig River Ferry, calling it a low-hanging fruit to ease the transport crisis in Metro Manila. The Passenger Forum in particular also called for the review of PAREX earlier this year.
