Estimating the environmental effects of the car shifting behavior along EDSA
Metro Manila is the most populated region in the country. It is the largest contributor to the economy of the country at around 40 percent. Situated in this metropolis is the Epifanio Delos Santos Avenue (EDSA), which currently serves an estimated average of 330,000 vehicles daily. This number has g...
