In an advisory, the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) said that road repairs along EDSA and C-5 will begin at 11 p.m. on Friday, May 31 to 5 a.m. on Monday, June 3, 2019.
The agency said that road reblocking activities along EDSA include the service road from Monte de Piedad to Aurora Boulevard, the first lane of New York Street, 3rd lane of Bansalangin Street, outer lanes of Magallanes up until the bus stops in Baclaran and Alabang.
Repair works will also cover the southbound portion of C-5’s outermost lane and U-turn slot near Market Market.
