Starting yesterday sidewalk vendors in Quezon City will be allowed to peddle their goods only in designated areas to prevent them from hampering traffic along major roads and thoroughfares during the holiday rush.


Niel Lina, head of the city government’s Market and Development Administration, said authorities will mainly focus their attention on areas along Commonwealth Avenue and Philcoa, and in Balintawak and Novaliches, where traffic is usually heavy.

The Quezon City government has reactivated the city’s Local Price Coordinating Council to make sure that prices of commodities, particularly prime necessities, are sold at levels pegged by law.


Mayor Feliciano Belmonte Jr. issued Executive Order No. 6, citing the need to reorganize the council not only in the effort of keeping commodities at reasonable prices, particularly basic necessities, but also in finding ways to stabilize prices.
