Following the May 20 announcement about the Supreme Court’s (SC) partial lifting of the No Contact Apprehension Program (NCAP), the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) says that the agency will resume the contactless apprehension on Monday, May 26, 2025.

“It’s the same as before. We’ve been implementing that. It was just put on hold by the TRO,” said MMDA Chairman Atty. Don Artes.

Major roads covered by NCAP

According to the MMDA, only major Metro Manila roads under their jurisdiction will be covered by the returning NCAP:

Recto Avenue
Paz Mendoza (Otis)
Pres. Quirino Avenue
Araneta Avenue
EDSA
C.P. Garcia Avenue (C-5)
Katipunan Avenue
Tandang Sora
Roxas BLVD
Taft Avenue
South Super Highway
Shaw BLVD
Ortigas Avenue
Magsaysay BLVD
Aurora BLVD
Quezon Avenue
Commonwealth Avenue
A. Bonifacio
Rizal Avenue
Delpan
Marcos Highway
MacArthur Highway (up to Valenzuela)

“In our opinion, this [NCAP] will greatly help because our apprehension will be through CCTV cameras, and there will be no more physical apprehension. When there’s physical apprehension, you pull over, there’s arguing, sometimes there’s negotiating bribes... that causes traffic delays,” added Artes.
