Makati Pedestrianization Project

The Makati Pedestrianization Project is a joint initiative of the City Government of Makati, Makati Commercial Estate Association Inc. (MACEA) and Ayala Land, Inc., which meant to improve the traffic situation in the city, to provide safety and accessibility for pedestrians, and to create a distinct image for Makati Central Business District. Pedestrian Underpasses, Elevated Walkways, and Covered Walks are the pedestrianization components of this project. To date, 4.0 kilometers of constructed pedestrian underpasses, elevated walkways, and covered walks interconnecting transport hubs, buildings and landscaped promenades of the Makati CBD is being used by over 300,000 people with an estimated reduction in motorization of around 100,000 vehicles. The City Government of Makati, in partnership with corporations, plans to increase the walkway system from 4 kilometers to 30.4 kilometers. Using Transport Emissions Evaluation Models for Projects (TEEMP) designed by the Clean Air Asia, the GHG emission savings in 10 years through this project is 47,420 tCO2.
