Discover the streets, communities, and everyday places where pedicab drivers work, serve passengers, and continue to be part of Manila's transportation landscape.
Pedicabs are more than transportation. They are part of Manila's everyday community life, and the drivers who operate them provide short-distance mobility within the neighborhoods they know and serve.
In narrow streets, heritage districts, and local neighborhoods, pedicab drivers continue to provide transportation where their vehicles can navigate spaces that larger vehicles may not easily reach. Their work connects passengers to nearby destinations while supporting their own livelihoods.
For passengers and visitors, choosing to ride a pedicab can be a way to experience Manila from a closer perspective while supporting the drivers who make these everyday journeys possible.
Explore documented areas across the City of Manila where pedicab drivers work and serve passengers. Each location offers a different view of the communities, streets, and everyday conditions connected to pedicab transportation.
A pedicab ride offers more than a different way of moving through Manila. It provides a closer connection to the streets, communities, and drivers who make this form of transportation part of everyday city life.
Pedicabs allow passengers to experience neighborhoods at a slower and more direct pace. This also reflects the drivers' familiarity with the streets and communities where they work every day.
Pedicabs remain useful for short-distance travel and in narrow streets or areas where larger vehicles may have difficulty passing. Drivers provide this local mobility by navigating the roads and communities they know well.
A pedicab ride creates direct interaction between driver and passenger. These everyday encounters can build familiarity and provide passengers with a closer connection to the communities they travel through.
Pedicabs have become part of the everyday transportation experiences of many Manila communities. The drivers who operate them contribute to this continuing presence through their work and relationships with the people they serve.

PROTOTYPE • SAMPLE DRIVERThe driver ID and QR system gives participating pedicab drivers a visible connection to the stories and information documented through Kuwentong Pedicab.
Instead of simply identifying a pedicab as a mode of transportation, the system allows passengers to learn more about the driver they actually rode with and share feedback about their experience.
A participating pedicab driver receives a physical ID containing their basic information and a unique QR code.
After riding with the participating driver, the passenger scans the QR code displayed on the driver's ID or pedicab.
The QR code directs the passenger to the specific driver's profile, where they can view information about the driver, their usual area, and current rating.
The passenger can select a rating based on their ride experience and submit it through the driver profile.
The system connects the passenger's experience with the driver's documented profile, helping give participating drivers greater visibility within the project.
