Vehicles should not pass through EDSA or Commonwealth except to cross. The fare rate will remain at 2 PHP per kilometer. All price adjustments will be announced by the LTFRB.

      COVID-19 Safety Guidelines for UV Express

      Safety guidelines should also be observed to prevent the further spread of COVID-19. Operators must regularly assess the drivers’ fitness by checking for their symptoms and body temperature. All drivers must wear masks and gloves at all times. Passengers must wear masks as well. No Face Mask, No Ride will be strictly implemented. The exact fare must be paid beforehand. Only 2 passengers must be seated in a single row. Barriers must be installed between passengers and drivers, as well as in between passenger seats.
