LTFRB to phase out franchise of v-hires

It would be bad news for operators of vans-for-hire.

The Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB) have announced plans to phase out franchises of vans-for-hire to encourage the operations of public utility bus (PUB).

LTFRB has stopped accepting applications for franchise or renewals for v-hires because the agency wanted to phase out this kind of transportation.

A study released by the Department of Transportation and Communication (DOTC) said PUB is still the most efficient and less costly mass transportation in the country today.

Likewise, findings reveal that jeepneys cause heavy traffic in major thoroughfares and should be allowed only in secondary roads.

The capacity of four passenger jeepneys is equivalent of one bus.

LTFRB Legal Officer Jose Douglas Sanson said v-hire franchises issued in the late 1990s and 2000 are valid for five years.

The operator is entitled to one renewal for the same period to recover his investment.

The agency is also encouraging the operations of AUV (Asian utility vehicles) to serve point-to-point routes.

John 3:16-18 ESV
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
