The expanded number coding scheme in Metro Manila is suspended from Thursday, October 31, to Friday, November 1, in observation of All Saints’ Day and All Souls Day, the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority announced.

“Suspendido ang pagpapatupad ng Expanded Unified Vehicular Volume Reduction Program (UVVRP) o number coding scheme sa Oktubre 31, Huwebes, upang bigyang-daan ang mga bibiyahe sa paggunita ng #Undas at long weekend,” MMDA said in an advisory.

(The Expanded Unified Vehicular Volume Reduction Program or number coding scheme is suspended on Oct. 31, Thursday, to give allowance to those going to cemeteries for All Saints’ Day and long weekend, and on Nov. 1, Friday, which is a non-working holiday.)

Meanwhile, the Makati City will also suspend its number coding scheme on Thursday starting at 12:00 p.m. in line with the suspension of work in government.
