PHOTOS: EDSA in the Eyes of a Pedestrian
Here’s what EDSA looks like from 34 footbridges
(SPOT.ph) Not counting the MRT stations, did you know that there are 34 footbridges along EDSA? It’s a curious number and we’re not entirely sure if it’s lucky or just an unplanned evenness. What we do know is going up each and every one of them would be a good way to see the state of the long stretch of road that is the lifeline of Metro Manila.
Â
This is what EDSA looks like during an ordinary day and here are a few things we spotted as we journeyed from North to South.
Â
Notes: We are using the names posted on the footbridge. The trek is from Monumento to Taft
Â
MCU Footbridge: Where we saw passengers alighting in the middle of the road.
Â
B Serrano Footbridge: Where we saw daredevils crossing the street.
Â
Gen. Tinio Footbridge: Where we saw the light traffic caused by a U-turn slot.
Â
Gen. Malvar Footbridge: Here, it is apparent that one of the things you’ll see from the footbridge are other people who don’t use the footbridge.
Â
Bagong Bario Footbridge: Where we saw Manong acting like a boss.
Â
Bansalangin Footbridge: Where we saw this man wearing a nice polo, sitting on a sweet spot of a jeepney.
Â
West / North Footbridge: Enjoy the bit of breathing space. And hello, pedestrian in the middle of the road.
Â
North Avenue Footbridge: Where we saw the sidewalk and everyone on it (and not quite on it just yet).
Â
Quezon Avenue Footbridge: Where we saw the "action" starting.
Â
Ermin Garcia Footbridge: This is what they mean when they say World’s Largest Parking Lot.
Â
Ayala Footbridge: We did stop to check out the flowers.
