Maynilad, Waze Partner for Better Road Project Info Dissemination

Maynilad Water Services, Inc. (Maynilad) announced on Monday, October 28, that it has partnered with navigation app Waze to let the public know about its projects that impact traffic flow in the metro. Maynilad hopes that with the partnership, the public will be better informed to take alternate routes that avoid traffic.

Using Waze's 'Connected Citizen's Program (CCP),' Maynilad will provide real-time data regarding its roadworks to the Waze Map, including those that require road closures. Waze users may then decide to avoid possible traffic buildup near Maynilad worksites, which could potentially promote better traffic flow as well as improve road safety.

"We strive to alleviate the effect of our roadworks activities on the motoring public," said Maynilad CEO and President Ramoncito S. Fernandez. "Through this partnership with Waze, we can empower drivers by providing real-time information about Maynilad roadworks that will allow them to better plan their daily routes."

"Waze has always been committed to bring cities and citizens together to resolve traffic situations, such as road closure and construction that can cause travel delays," said Krishna Kumar, APAC Regional Manager of Waze. "Our partnership with Maynilad is a strong example of how a meaningful collaboration can be built to create the smart cities of tomorrow."

According to Waze, the Waze Map strengthens with every data point contributed across its vast community. Through its CCP, government and private organizations can directly upload traffic-related information to the map.
