In a bid to further enhance the public commuting experience brought by the busway system, the EDSA Busway will now be under the monitoring of the Bus Management and Dispatch System (BMDS) of the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA).
Through the partnership with MMDA, this innovative system will improve the commutersβ experience by introducing a more systematic monitoring of the number of units plying the EDSA Busway. This ensures a well-managed flow of buses, resulting in smoother journeys and reduced congestion.
In addition, the BMDS enables comprehensive driver monitoring. Using QR codes as a contactless method, designated Dispatching Officers from the MMDA, stationed at PITX and Monumento, can efficiently scan drivers’ unique QR codes. This grants access to crucial information, including unsettled violations, ensuring a high level of accountability.
