Free 24/7 EDSA Bus Carousel rides this December

Great news, commuters! DOTr recently announced the extended operation of the Libreng Sakay program at the EDSA Bus Carousel, which will run 24/7 this Christmas season.



The 24/7 free rides at the EDSA Bus Carousel will run from December 1 to 31. An additional 100 buses will be deployed to accommodate the 24-hour service, which runs from Caloocan City to ParaƱaque Integrated Terminal Exchange. The current free rides program runs from 4 a.m. to 11 p.m. (Mondays to Sundays).



The free rides extension addresses the anticipated increase in passengers going to Metro Manila during the holiday season. Malls have adjusted their operating hours from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. This also addresses the need for BPO workers and mall employees to have means of transportation beyond the usual hours. 



The route traverses from Caloocan City to PITX in Paranaque City, with 18 bus stops in between.


1. MCU Median Stop, EDSA, Monumento

2. Bagong Barrio, Caloocan Median Stop

3. Balintawak LRT 1, EDSA, Quezon City

4. Kaingin Road Bus Stop, EDSA, Quezon City

5. EDSA Munoz Median Stop 

6. North Avenue Median Stop

7. EDSA Quezon Ave. Median Stop 

8. EDSA Nepa Q-Mart Median Stop 

9. Main Ave. Median Stop 

10. MRT Santolan-Annapolis Median Stop 

11. EDSA Ortigas Median Stop 

12. EDSA Guadalupe Median Stop 

13. EDSA Carousel Buendia Median Stop 

14. MRT-3 Ayala Station, EDSA (SB)

15. Taft Ave. cor. EDSA (SB)

16. Roxas Blvd., EDSA (SB)

17. SM Mall of Asia, Pasay City

The Libreng Sakay program will last only until the end of the year because the national government has no funds allocated for the program in 2023.
