MANILA, Philippines – Cubao as a transport hub — thumbs up or thumbs down?
Several public transportation vehicles from different parts of Metro Manila, the Greater Manila area, and some provinces in Luzon converge in Cubao— a dense commercial center of Quezon City. This explains the persistent tagline: “All roads lead to Cubao.”
Rappler MovePH interns Angela Ballerda and Hailie Tolentino went to key transportation points in Cubao to gather commuter ratings using a thumbs-up or thumbs-down system. This includes jeepney and bus terminals, train stations, overpasses, and other transportation facilities.
