Jeepneys, once hailed as the 'King of the Road' and a cultural symbol in the Phillipines to rival New York's yellow taxis, may soon disappear from Manila's gridlocked streets, as authorities move to phase out the Philippines' iconic World War II-era minibuses, citing pollution and safety concerns. / AFP PHOTO / TED ALJIBE / TO GO WITH AFP STORY PHILIPPINES-JEEPNEY-CULTURE-TRANSPORT,SCENE

The Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) lifted the number coding scheme in Metro Manila on Monday due to inclement weather.

In an advisory, the MMDA said the number coding for vehicles with license plates ending in 1 and 2 was suspended starting 5:00 a.m.

The number coding and odd-even scheme in Pasig City has also been suspended Monday, local authorities said. However, the truck ban will remain in effect in Pasig City since it was not coverered by the suspension of number coding and odd-even scheme.

Similarly, Cavite deferred the implementation of its number coding scheme in the province.

Makati City has not yet issued an advisory regarding the enforcement of its number coding system for Monday, as of this posting.   /kga
