Bus operators should require their passengers to register at the online portal, S-Pass system (https://www.s-pass.ph/), before buying their tickets, according to the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB). ADVERTISEMENTThe memorandum covers around 2,600 provincial buses entering Metro Manila and other reopened provincial routes. One needs to secure a travel pass-through permit (TPP) if he is going to “unrestricted but passing through restricted” areas. So far, 88 provinces, highly urbanized cities and independent component cities are using the S-Pass system. Ten highly urbanized cities and independent component cities are labeled as restricted, while 17 are unrestricted.
