00:20According to Camarines Sur Provincial Police Office, they are conducting a round-the-clock operation
00:26to fix the traffic and avoid a counter-flow that could make the situation worse.
00:31The PNP's Land Transportation Office is present here.
00:35In Sitio Mawka in Barangay Colatlin, Lupi, the 30-minute interval scheme is already in effect
00:40that's why the traffic is continuously falling.

00:46that follows the same direction of the traffic, south and north, that continues for 15 minutes.

01:01or Santa Elena, Capalonga, Daet, Camarines Norte if they are going to or returning to Manila.
