The single ticketing system has been finally approved by the Metro Manila mayors during the Metro Manila Council meeting held at the MMDA's new office in Pasig City a few days ago.
Local chief executives of Metro Manila have adopted the single ticketing system through the establishment of the Metro Manila Traffic Code of 2023 which provides for a system of interconnectivity among government instrumentalities involved in the transport and traffic management in the metropolis with harmonized fines and penalties.
The Metro Manila Traffic Code of 2023, which will serve as the guideline for the system, listed the most common traffic violation penalties which will be imposed uniformly in all Metro Manila local government units.
Here's a complete list of the standardized fines and penalties:
The MMTC also has provision for the interconnectivity requirements with the LTO’s Land Transportation Management System (LTMS).
The MMDA will provide the funds for the purchase of the hardware and I.T requirements needed for seamless and simultaneous rollout of the LGU’s integration with the LTMS.
The LGUs will likewise enact ordinances that will adapt standardized fines on the identified common traffic violations and separate ordinance for traffic-related offenses not stated in the traffic code.
Tentative start of the new ticketing system should be on or before March 15, 2023.
