Title
CPC Applications Limited to One Route/Start
Law
Ltfrb Memorandum Circular No. 90-010
Decision Date
Apr 2, 1990
The LTFRB mandates that all applications for certificates of public convenience for transportation services must specify only one line or route and one starting point to streamline the approval process.

Questions (LTFRB MEMORANDUM CIRCULAR NO. 90-010)

No CPC application shall contain more than one specific line/route and starting point.

The application must contain only one specific line or route.

The application must have only one starting point or origin.

No. The circular prohibits applications from containing more than one specific line/route and starting point.

No. The circular requires only one starting point/origin for other types of transportation services.

For bus/jeepney: one specific line/route; for other service types: one starting point/origin.

To ensure the expeditious and judicious resolution of applications for certificates of public convenience.

It took effect immediately upon adoption (Adopted: 2 April 1990; the text states it shall take effect immediately).

Any prior LTFRB circular that conflicts with the one-route/one-start rule is superseded and no longer controlling to the extent of the inconsistency.

It regulates the filing/structure of CPC applications (their permitted content regarding route/starting point).

Only one specific line or route per application.

Only one starting point/origin per application.

It would be inconsistent with the circular’s requirements and thus subject to disallowance or rejection/denial for being non-compliant (consistent with the circular’s purpose and directive).

The circular’s general rule states no application shall contain more than one specific line/route and starting point. Practically, this indicates both should be singular; therefore multiple starting points would likely violate the general restriction.
