Getting Around Pasig: Walkability, Public Transit & Biking

Pasig is increasingly walkable, thanks to initiatives like 'People's Streets' and a well-mixed landscape of residential and commercial zones concentrated around areas like Ortigas Center and Kapitolyo. These areas provide easy access to a multitude of shops, eateries, and cowork spaces. However, certain areas might lack continuous sidewalks, which could disrupt a pedestrian's ease of movement.

Pasig boasts a robust public transport system, with convenient access to buses, jeepneys, and the MRT and LRT train lines. The Pasig River Ferry also provides a refreshing alternative to avoid road congestion. Travelers will find apps like Sakay.ph helpful in navigating these options, though occasional traffic jams can still cause delays.

The city of Pasig is on its way to becoming more bike-friendly, investing in bike lanes on key roads. These efforts are bolstered by some protected lanes; however, the network remains somewhat inconsistent, with quality varying significantly across areas and some lanes being shared with vehicular traffic during busy times. Cycling in Pasig offers potential, but riders should stay alert to navigate these mixed-use paths.
