Abstract

Traffic is prevalent in the cities, particularly in Quezon City, Manila, and Makati within Metro Manila. The main avenues of these cities and even the secondary roads are often congested, and the problems of traffic congestion have become so serious that the economy is affected. While the total reduction of congestion is next to impossible in the Philippines, consistent and serious efforts to improve transportation infrastructure for Metro Manila including much-delayed mass transport systems can translate to genuine benefits. Traffic is regularly monitored by the Department of Public Order and Safety through the Emergency Operations Centre which boasts of integrated surveillance and emergency response system. Since the advent of mass transportation by motor vehicles is fast increasing, deploying traffic enforcers is highly needed to enforce and monitor traffic laws that relate to roadway operations. With this, the researchers aimed to get the perceptions of the respondents on the competencies of the traffic enforces in regulating traffic congestions of Barangay San Antonio Quezon City. The study used a descriptive method of research to show the assessment of the respondents on the traffic congestion along San Antonio Quezon City. A descriptive method is used to describe characteristics of a population or phenomenon being studied, a broad class or non-experiment studies, and the most suitable method for this study since it proposed to observe, describe, and document the demographic profile of the respondent and their evaluation of the said factors affecting traffic movement. The result evaluates the competencies of traffic enforcer in regulating traffic congestion at BarangaySan Antonio in Quezon City and the other insights and the positive effects of the deployment of traffic law enforcement officers to enhance pedestrian, commuters, drivers, children, and other street users’ security. This study will examine the value of deployment of traffic enforcers to overall deterrence plans and calls for the increased use of targeted and concentrated traffic patrols rather than random patrols. It recommends a strategy of intelligence-based deployments as part of a layered security system that can maximize the total impact to the traffic safety and security missions under Barangay San Antonio, Quezon City, and to foresee the effect and the positive perceptions of the deployment of traffic enforcers. This study aims to define a significant measurement on the degree of essentiality in their competencies in regulating traffic congestion within the local roads of Barangay San Antonio Quezon City.
