Pope Francis is coming over to the Philippines from 15-19 January, 2015. Millions of Filipino Catholics, faithful and visitors, are expected to grace Manila for the activities like the Holy Mass at Luneta; meeting at the MOA Arena, University of Santo Tomas, and Manila Cathedral; and a state visit at Malacanang Palace. The Pope is also expected to fly to Tacloban to hold Mass and visit those who have been affected by Typhoon Yolanda (Haiyan) in 2013.

Recently, the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) and the organizers of the Papal Visit has provided information on the motorcade routes, closed roads, and alternate routes for areas affected by the activities, in both Metro Manila and Tacloban City-Palo (Leyte).
