MANILA – The Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) will resume the EDSA rehabilitation project in San Juan City and Mandaluyong City starting Friday night.

In a social media post, the DPWH said the works involve reblocking and asphalt overlay activities.

“Phase 2 of EDSA Rehabilitation will continue from Friday, November 6 (10 p.m. onwards) to Sunday, November 8,” it said.

The affected areas are the southbound lane of EDSA Main Avenue Bus Station to EDSA Annapolis Street (asphalt overlay) and the northbound lane fronting EDSA-SM Megamall Building B to EDSA-White Plains Avenue (concrete reblocking).

“All lanes that underwent reblocking will reopen to traffic on Monday, November 9, at 5 a.m.,” the DPWH said.

It advised motorists to exercise caution, obey traffic signs and use alternative routes.

“Private vehicles are reminded once again that the EDSA bus lane is for buses only,” the DPWH said.

DPWH Secretary Banoy Lopez said they expect to complete the EDSA rehabilitation by the end of 2027 or the beginning of 2028.

"If we fix our EDSA, at least we are restoring the dignity of travel for our countrymen because we have a good road," he said in a statement.
