A dump truck carrying a heavy load of gravel crashed early Monday, 16 March, along Eastbank Road Floodway in Barangay Manggahan, Pasig City, forcing authorities to close part of the roadway, city officials reported.

The inner lane of the road was temporarily closed, the Pasig City Public Information Office (PIO) said in a statement.

The incident occurred in the early morning hours, prompting personnel from the Pasig City government and traffic authorities to close a section of the floodway to clear debris and conduct an initial investigation.

Responding teams from the Pasig Traffic and Parking Management Office (TPMO) and the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) were dispatched to the scene to manage traffic and oversee cleanup operations.

Motorists were advised to expect delays and use alternate routes while response and clearing efforts continue.
