MANILA (Philippine Daily Inquirer/ANN): By 2022, pedestrians and commuters can hop from one public transport to another along Edsa, Metro Manila’s main and congested thoroughfare, safely and seamlessly through what project proponents describe as greenways to be financed partly by an Asian Development Bank (ADB) loan.

In a statement on Monday (Dec. 14), ADB said it approved the P5.9-billion loan for the Philippines’ Edsa Greenways Project, a project led by the Department of Transportation (DOTr).
