About the Manila North Tollways
Manila North toll ways, or the NLEX was made in the year 2000, according to what I understand from the reporters, this project will significantly outweigh the adverse impacts in the environmental assessment studies. This project ensures the sustainability of the project benefits, in which they followed an effective monitoring scheme. I think that this project really met the standards for the environmental impact assessment test. Every environmental problem, they have a solution at hand which is carried out immediately like when a tree is cut, 10 trees will be planted to replace it. They monitored every environmental parameter by submitting every factor which has an effect to the said project.
“Rapid urbanization in Metro Manila and nearby regional growth centers resulted in a significant growth in road traffic. “ We all know that traffic stresses out people, consumes more gas, which led to more pollution. Due to traffic, levels of exhaust gas emissions such as the hydrocarbons,carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides will also increase. But they made a comprehensive traffic management plan which ensures minimal disturbance to every motorist.
“The widening at segments 1 and 2 as well as the upgrading and improvement of the whole system, is undertaken to meet these needs through increased capacity, improved safety, better operational efficiency, and restored riding quality.”, this statement is from the article I read from their report. For me,this will be an interesting report; this topic opens my mind to new possibilities of innovating things for the betterment of mankind, because as a future engineer and engineers solve problems, I must contribute something for my society, something that will be a great help not only for us but also for the future ones. Things such as improvement automobile efficiency of burning fuels or improving the use of hybrid and electric cars, through these we will attain a sustainable source of energy.
