Learn about number coding in Marikina City.



Understanding Number Coding in Metro Manila

The number coding scheme (also called the Modified Unified Vehicular Volume Reduction Program or UVVRP) is a traffic management strategy for reducing the number of cars—and ultimately easing congestion—on the road.

The Metro Manila Development Authority (MMDA) implements the number coding implementation in Metro Manila. Through this program, traffic volume is expected to be reduced by 20% during morning and afternoon/evening peak hours.

Number Coding in Marikina

There’s no number coding in Marikina. But there's a portion of Marcos Highway near Sta. Lucia East Mall and Ayala Malls Feliz that’s covered by the number coding scheme. If you have a coded vehicle, avoid the route from 7 a.m. to 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. to 8 p.m.

For complete list, visit Number Coding in Metro Manila.



Number Coding in Metro Manila

As a driver or even as a car owner, it’s best to know your vehicle’s plate number, especially its last digit to avoid using it on the imposed number coding days. Plate numbers that end with 1 and 2 are not allowed to travel on certain roads every Monday. The same policy applies on plate numbers 3 and 4 every Tuesday, 5 and 6 every Wednesday, 7 and 8 every Thursday, and 9 and 0 every Friday.

MMDA Number Coding

Where Does Number Coding Apply in the Philippines?

According to the MMDA, number coding in the Philippines covers all cities and towns within Metro Manila.

However, Makati City is excluded from the program since it has its own traffic code. Makati implements its number coding scheme from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.

All the following major roads in cities under the jurisdiction of the MMDA shall follow the number coding scheme:
