PROJECT: SKY BIKE LANES for Metro Manila

Hello! This is a quick survey to determine public acceptance of and perception on the idea of building sky (elevated) bike lanes in Metro Manila. This is being done as part of my Special Problem (ENRM 290), a requirement in UPOU's Master of Environment and Natural Resources Management program.

I will really appreciate your time in responding to this survey! Thank you and God bless!

[Disclaimer: At this conceptualization stage, this is purely a personal project. While I am a student of UP Open University, and consider this for my Special Problem, this survey/project is not endorsed by any organization/university, including UPOU.] Thank you so much!
