#jeepney fare rollback

The Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB) has ordered a provisional rollback of jeepney fares to PHP 9.00 for NCR and Regions 3 and 4. The rollback is provisional or temporary, and operators will not be required to secure a fare matrix before implementing the new fare. The Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB) has approved the PHP 2.00 fare hike, increasing the minimum jeepney fare to PHP 10.00. The LTFRB recently approved the PHP 2.00 permanent jeepney fare hike for the NCR, Region 3, at Region 4-A, in response to the petition that transport groups filed in September 2017. The Land Transportation and Franchising Regulatory Board (LTFRB) has reminded both commuters and drivers that the move to raise minimum jeepney fares in select regions to Php9 has not been in full effect. This is amidst reports that several jeepneys have started to charge their passengers with the new fare. As such, commuters are hereby advised to file a complaint at the LTFRB in case they encounter erring jeepney drivers that have already started to charge the new fare. Jeepneys are hereby advised to wait for the body's order before starting to charge the new fare.
