Ayala Avenue is a major thoroughfare in Makati, the Philippines. It is one of the busiest roads in Metro Manila, crossing through the heart of the Makati Central Business District. Because of the many businesses along the avenue, Ayala Avenue is nicknamed the " Wall Street of the Philippines" and dubbed in the 1970s and 1980s as the " Madison Avenue of the Philippines".

History

Ayala Avenue east of Makati Avenue, 1982

Ayala Avenue's segment from the present-day Gil Puyat (Buendia) Avenue to Makati Avenue used to be the primary runway of the Nielson Airport, which was inaugurated in 1937 and was one of the first airports built in Luzon, while its extension occupies a segment of an old road that connected the Santa Ana Park and McKinley–Pasay Road. [3] [4] [5] The airport was destroyed during the Japanese occupation of the Philippines on December 10, 1941, and resumed operations after the end of World War II in 1947. The airport closed in 1948, and its permanent facilities were passed on to the owner of the land, Ayala y Compañía. The runways were then converted into roads as part of Ayala's plan to build a new business district in the area. [6] The modern avenue was completed in the mid-1950s, [7] eventually connecting it to Highway 54 (now EDSA). [8]

It later created a new segment between Kamagong Street and Metropolitan Avenue, connecting it to South Avenue. [9] In 1998, a flyover was built for left turners onto EDSA northbound. [10]

The avenue, particularly its extension north of Gil Puyat Avenue, was once a component of Circumferential Road 3 of Manila's arterial road network. [11]

Bicycle lanes

The middle lane of Ayala Avenue is designated as a public transport lane, while the outermost lane is designated as a bicycle lane.

In 2020, in response to the growing popularity of bicycle commuting and ownership amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, the Makati Central Estate Association (MaCEA) and Ayala Land, through its Make it Makati campaign, designated 3-meter-wide (9.8 ft) bicycle lanes along Ayala Avenue from Gil Puyat Avenue to EDSA, protected by bollards and exclusive to non-motorized bicycles and scooters. Bicycle boxes were also added to intersections to allow left turns. The lanes underwent a trial run on August 7, 2020, and were completed on September 7, 2020. Following this, designated stops for public transport services were also moved to the middle lane of the road. [12]

Shared lanes scheme controversy

On February 10, 2023, Make It Makati announced plans to replace the Ayala Avenue bicycle lanes with sharrows effective February 15. [13] [14] Despite the backlash from cycling groups, Make It Makati proceeded with the changes. [15] [16] [17] On February 12, cycling groups opposed to the scheme organized a protest bike ride along Ayala Avenue. In response, Make It Makati deferred the implementation of the sharrows scheme to March 6 to gather feedback and engage in dialogue with the cycling community. [14] [16] [18] [19]

Protests

Protest on Ayala Avenue after the assassination of Evelio Javier that helped in the start of the People Power Revolution

Ayala Avenue has been a significant venue for demonstrations in the Philippines. Following the assassination of Ninoy Aquino in 1983, it became a focal point for protests against President Ferdinand Marcos, with office workers showing support by throwing yellow confetti, the color which had become associated with Aquino, from buildings above. [25]

From August 2000 to January 2001, Ayala Avenue became the focal point for protests once again, this time against President Joseph Estrada, who later resigned upon being deposed during the Second EDSA Revolution. [8] Protests continued to Estrada's successor, Gloria Macapagal Arroyo, with notable gatherings on July 13, 2005, demanding her resignation of Arroyo amid allegations of electoral fraud that led to her re-election in 2004, [26] and in February 2008 against her administration. [27]

On September 8, 2023, climate activists held a protest in front of the Ninoy Aquino Monument at the intersection of Ayala Avenue and Paseo de Roxas to urge, notably, G20 world leaders to shift from fossil fuels to renewable energy. [28] On June 26, 2024, members of the Asian Peoples' Movement on Debt and Development held a protest calling for a halt to debt-related policies. [29] The August Twenty-One Movement (ATOM), which was founded by Agapito Aquino in response to his brother Ninoy's assassination, also holds their Run/Ride On Against Revision (ROAR) initiative on the avenue every third (or fourth) Sunday of the month, coinciding with the Car-Free Sundays.
