Ni-request ng Department of Transportation (DOTr) sa Google na maisama sa popular real-time navigation app na Google Maps ang mga bike lane routes sa Pilipinas upang upang matulungan ang mga siklista sa kanilang daily commutes.


“This will be a very good innovation for Google Maps considering that many Filipinos now are riding bikes as their main mode of transportation which brings significant health and environmental benefits especially amid the pandemic,” ani Transportation Secretary Arthur Tugade.


Ayon kay Tugade, naghihintay pa sila sa approval ng Google ngunit kumpiyansa naman daw sila na  mapagbibigyan nito ang kanilang kahilingan, dahil ito’y tagasuporta rin ng active transport.


“We have asked Google to consider this suggestion top priority considering the increasing number of Filipino cyclists. We are confident that we can win their support on this,” dagdag niya.


Sinabi rin nito na nakumpleto na ng DOTr ang kanilang 500-kilometer bike lane network sa mga metropolitan cities sa buong bansa, na kinabibilangan ng Metro Manila - 313.12 kilometers, Metro Cebu - 129.47 kilometers, at Metro Davao - 54.74 kilometers.


Ang mga naturang bike lanes ay mayroong pavement markings, physical separators, solar-powered road studs, thermoplastic paints, road signages, at bike racks.


Ang naturang proyekto ay pinondohan ng pamahalaan sa ilalim ng Bayanihan to Recover as One Act.
