Studies and government programs are reviewed to develop environmental strategies. BAU scenarios for 2005, 2010 and 2015, implementation of motor vehicle inspection system (MVIS), transportation demand management, replacement of 2-stroke tricycles with 4-stroke tricycles, construction of bike lanes, expansion of railway network, installation of diesel particulate traps (DPTs) for public transport vehicles, use of alternative fuels in public transport and policy combinations are assessed in terms of total PM emissions based on the emission model and aggregate travel demand forecasting models and database of the 1996 Metro Manila Urban Transportation Integration Study. Measures such as the MVIS and introduction of 4-stroke tricycles are the single policies that effected higher reduction in emissions from 11-16 tons/day in 2010 to around 12-16 tons/day in 2015. These are followed by the railway network expansion with reduction of 11 tons/day in 2015 and by the installation of DPTs in public transport vehicles.
