MMDA Resolution No.

02-28: It Effects to Support the

Basic Needs of Tricycle Drivers

Theoretical Framework
According to (SGD) Bayani F. Fernando (2002), MMDA Resolution No. 02-28 is
authorizing the metropolitan manila development authority and the local government units to
clear the sidewalks, streets, avenues, alleys, bridges, parks and other public places in metro
manila of all illegal structures and obstructions. In accordance to this resolution, the next
paragraph is an excerpt:

“It has been observed that some of the city/municipal streets, avenues, alleys, sidewalks,
bridges, parks and other public places in Metro Manila are not properly utilized by the
road users/public due to malpractices of some unscrupulous individuals who wantonly
utilize these areas for displaying and vending their goods as well as utilizing the same in
erecting some structures for commercial and advertising purposes;”

Moreover,

“the same ruling states that such use of sidewalk “applies even to cases involving the use
or lease of public places under permits or licenses issued by competent authority upon
the theory that such holders could not take advantage of their unlawful permits and
licenses and claim that the land in question is a part of a public street or a public place
devoted to public use hence beyond the commerce of man”;

In this resolution, tricycle drivers are affected by said resolution in limiting them to pick
up passengers and the placement of the TODA (Tricycle Operators and Drivers Association) of
their respective routes. Through the resolution, the researchers come up with the idea of
conducting this kind of research to find out the effects of MMDA Resolution No. 02-28 to
support the basic needs of tricycle drivers.
