Transportation Secretary Vince Dizon has relieved Metro Rail Transit Line 3 (MRT-3) General Manager Oscar Bongon of his duties, citing dissatisfaction with the agency’s response to a recent escalator malfunction.

The incident in question involved an escalator at one of the MRT-3 stations, which malfunctioned and resulted in minor injuries to several passengers. Witnesses reported that the escalator abruptly stopped, causing commuters to lose balance.

In the aftermath, Secretary Dizon expressed concerns over the timeliness and adequacy of the MRT-3 management’s response to the situation. He emphasized the importance of ensuring passenger safety and maintaining public trust in the country’s transportation systems.

The Department of Transportation (DOTr) has announced that an interim officer-in-charge will be appointed to oversee MRT-3 operations while a thorough investigation into the incident and the agency’s response is conducted. The DOTr reiterated its commitment to upholding safety standards and improving service reliability across all transit lines.

This development has sparked discussions among commuters and advocacy groups regarding the current state of public transportation infrastructure. Many are calling for comprehensive assessments and upgrades to prevent similar occurrences in the future.

The MRT-3, serving thousands of passengers daily along EDSA, has faced various operational challenges over the years, including technical glitches and maintenance issues. The recent escalator mishap has further highlighted the need for continuous improvements to ensure commuter safety and satisfaction.

As the investigation proceeds, the DOTr has assured the public that necessary measures will be implemented to address any identified shortcomings and enhance the overall reliability of the MRT-3 system.
