In a groundbreaking move, the Department of Transportation has announced a 5-kilometer elevated walkway along EDSA to encourage walking over driving. Dubbed the “Sky Stroll,” this visionary project promises to transform Metro Manila’s traffic nightmare into a leisurely stroll above the chaos.
But there’s a twist: the walkways end abruptly without stairs, escalators, or elevators. Instead, commuters will be treated to a thrilling 10-foot drop-off, promoting an Olympic-level athleticism. DOTr officials are optimistic, predicting a new generation of high-jumping Filipino athletes poised to bring home Olympic gold.
Critics argue the plan is a high-risk leap of faith, but supporters claim it’s a giant step towards a fitter nation. As EDSA’s traffic grinds to a halt below, the sky’s the limit for those daring enough to take the plunge.
