00:00 There are more than 1,700 routes in the country.

00:04 There is no consolidated jeepney according to the LTFRB.

00:09 Will the long alternative routes, especially in the province,

00:13 catch up?

00:14 Ian Cruz is on the look out.

00:16 The LTFRB assured that the commuters starting February 1

00:27 will consider all jeepneys as "colorum"

00:31 that did not consolidate their franchise.

00:34 That is, there are more than 1,700 routes in the country

00:37 that have not consolidated jeepney

00:40 based on the document from the LTFRB

00:42 that was evaluated by GMI Integrated News Research.

00:46 The majority of them are in Bicol,

00:47 followed by Metro Manila,

00:49 where there are more than 300 routes

00:51 that have not consolidated jeepney.

00:53 We assure you, like in NCR, these are just short distance routes.

00:59 Through the LTFRB, the short routes that did not consolidate the franchise

01:03 can now be used by long routes.

01:06 There are many short distance routes,

01:09 for example, A to B,

01:11 but there is also A to C that goes through A to B.

01:14 There are buses, jeeps, and UVs,

01:17 that's why it's full.

01:19 This is one of the Commonwealth Avenues

01:21 where many public utility jeeps and other passenger vehicles travel.

01:27 That's why we will know on February 1

01:30 if the vehicle will be finished here because of the number of passengers.

01:34 If it's finished, the government will have free rides

01:38 that will be given to those who were previously riding

01:40 the jeepneys that did not consolidate.

01:43 The LTO and its regional heads will also help on Monday

01:46 as part of their preparations for their arrest on February 1

01:50 that will target not only the consolidated jeepneys,

01:53 but also those that have not yet been registered.

01:56 There is a criminal liability up to 5 years imprisonment

01:59 plus up to 3 million pesos fine.

02:01 It's criminal that the consolidated jeepneys are imprisoned.

02:04 If it was not there before...

02:05 The LTO will also monitor where the public transport is lacking.

02:09 That's why we're coordinating with all bus companies

02:13 just in case we have someone who is involved.

02:16 In some places, the alternative to the jeepney is long.

02:20 But the LTO said that even they can be arrested by the agency.

02:24 For GMA Integrated News, Ian Cruz, NKTOK 24 Hours.
