Number Coding..LIFTED ...yahooooooo

THE UNIFIED Vehicular Volume Reduction Program (UVVRP), popularly known as the number coding traffic scheme in Metro Manila, will be lifted starting April 6 until June 2, an official of the Metro Manila Development Authority announced Wednesday.
Angelito Vergel de Dios, MMDA Traffic Operations Center executive director, said only Makati City would continue implementing the traffic scheme since the volume of vehicles was not expected to change here, unlike those in other parts of Metro Manila.
The lifting of the UVVRP is based on a study by the MMDA’s Traffic Engineering Center (TEC) in the summers of 2004 and 2005 that showed as much as a 30-percent reduction in the number of vehicles on the road during the summer months, De Dios said.
De Dios said that this 30-percent drop was above the reduction in vehicular volume resulting from the UVVRP, which is at 20 percent.
Makati, on the other hand, is a busy district with a minimal number of schools, so a UVVRP suspension during summer will not work, De Dios said.
