One lane however has been left open for EDSA Carousel buses, according to a report by Bam Alegre on Unang Balita.

The Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) will retrofit the flyover to ensure its structural integrity.

The repair work is expected to last for six months until October 25.

Motorists were advised earlier by the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority to take alternate routes such as the Mabuhay lane.
