Yellow Dot Transport Terminal: Millenial Jeepneys in Antipolo

I have high hopes for our transportation here in the Philippines. I know we can do better. Ever since I experienced the great transportation in Malaysia several years ago, I am wishing we could do the same here.

That is why I am so ecstatic about the good news to my fellow Antipoleños! Department of Transportation (DOTr) have this new project of modern PUV/Jeepneys that will benefit commuters. It was wonderful news for me because their main terminal is at Petron Station which is located in Langhaya (lower Antipolo) a few blocks away from our house. They have a FREE test drive for almost 3 weeks now as of this writing and I myself already experienced it. :)

DOTr Project has partnered with the company Yellow Dot Transport Terminal Inc to provide comfort and convenience ride to commuters. For the FREE ride, only 3 units have been going from Cogeo, Antipolo to Market-Market, Taguig. 


The mini-bus lookalike jeepney can accommodate at-least 30 passengers. It has a high ceiling so it can still allow standing passengers. It is also equipped with FREE WiFi, fully air-conditioned, have GPS (global positioning system) and CCTV (closed-circuit televisions). They will use a card for payments instead of cash once the operation is in full force. I heard they will operate for 24 hrs! In addition, the so-called Millenial Jeepneys are Euro-4 compliant in compliance with the Clean Air Act of 1999.

I am very much excited about this project! It will not only help me as a commuter but it will encourage more people to commute which will help decongest the traffic here in the Philippines. During those FREE rides, I can say that the ride is at ease. Aside from the driver, there is also a steward who assist passengers. Sobrang hassle-free for me ang ride na 'to going to the office!

 Once they are on the full operation, I will update this post about their fare.

The card is reloadable up to PHP1,000 maximum and minimum of P20.00. They have a policy of one is to one card only. Cogeo to Market-Market costs PHP43 only! Discounts also apply to students, seniors & PWD. Minimum fare costs PHP11, PHP2 higher only from regular jeepneys.

They have a policy of TAP IN - TAP OUT so you'll not be charge of the whole amount of PHP43.00.
