THE Department of Transportation said Monday it has yet to greenlight the resumption of operations of motorcycle taxi players due to pending requirements.
Angkas has yet to comply with two requirements: provision for thermal scanners and background checks on their drivers, said Transportation Assistant Secretary Goddes Hope Libiran.
“Once maka-confirm ng Angkas na nakapag comply na sila, agad-agad i-issue ang notice to proceed para makapagsimula starting today,” she told ABS-CBN’s Teleradyo.
Cashless transactions and approved barriers are required from all motorcycle taxi players, she added.
Passengers are required to wear a face mask and helmet and must be prepared to fill up a health declaration form, she added.
“Importante po ito para masiguro natin na ‘yung sumasakay wala siyang lagnat or any symptom of COVID-19,” Libiran said.
