WHAT COMMUTERS NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE MCKINLEY HILL-SAN LORENZO COMET BUSES
Several COMET units were deployed in different areas of the metro throughout the pandemic to address transport-related issues. These electric buses, however, aren’t just band-aid solutions as some of you might think—they’re actually legitimately viable alternatives.
We’re about to see more units deployed in the city, as a new COMET bus route from San Lorenzo Place Mall in Makati City to McKinley Hill in Taguig (and vice versa) has just opened.
