Patuloy ang Fuel Subsidy Program para sa Public Utility Vehicles (PUVs) upang magbigay ng agarang tulong sa mga tsuper.
Nakipagtuwang ang Department of Energy (DOE) sa DOTr, LTFRB, DICT, at Land Bank of the Philippines upang makabuo ng isang whole-of-government program kung saan makatatanggap ang mga kwalipikadong tsuper ng ₱10 diskwento kada litro ng diesel, na may hanggang 150 liters na limitasyon kada linggo, katumbas ng tinatayang ₱1,500 na lingguhang tipid, na makatutulong upang mabawasan ang kanilang gastos sa operasyon at mapanatili ang kanilang kita sa araw-araw.

In line with the directives of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr., through DOTr Secretary Atty. Giovanni Z. Lopez and LTFRB Chairman Atty. Vigor D. Mendoza II, LTFRB Region XI continues to strengthen public transportation services and provide assistance through the implementation of various fuel subsidy programs, such as the Land-Based Service Contracting Program (LBSCP), which offers a 20% fare discount for commuters.

LTFRB Region XI, led by Regional Director Nonito A. Llanos III, implemented the LBSCP in the Davao Region from 27 April to 22 May 2026, benefiting 158,336 passengers. Through the 20% discount on regular fares, commuters were able to save an estimated total of P3.85 million during the program's 20-day implementation period.

The program, which aims to mitigate the effects of rising fuel prices, provided participating Transport Service Entities (TSEs) with a subsidy of P40 per kilometer throughout the duration of the program. For a maximum of 100 kilometers per day (regular trips), TSEs offered passengers a 20% discount on regular fares, on top of existing discounts for Persons with Disabilities (PWDs), Senior Citizens, and Students.

Routes covered under the "P20 Off Fare" program included those operated by modernized units under the Public Transport Modernization Program, namely: Davao City–Baganga, Davao Oriental via Mati City; Digos City–Malalag; Digos City–Bansalan; Digos City–Magsaysay, Davao del Sur Proper via Bansalan; Digos City–Magsaysay, Davao del Sur via Matanao; Digos City–Inawayan, Sta. Cruz; and Malita, Davao Occidental–Davao City.

The initiative helped reduce transportation costs for commuters while supporting transport operators in maintaining efficient and dependable public transportation services throughout the region.

Regional Director Llanos added, “Dako ang natabang sa 20% Fare Discount Program dili lamang sa atong mga pasahero nga nakatigom pinaagi sa mas ubos nga pamasahe, kondili usab sa atong mga Transport Service Entities nga nakadawat og subsidy aron mapadayon ang ilang operasyon bisan pa sa pagsaka sa presyo sa krudo. Nagpadayon ang LTFRB sa pagpaningkamot nga mahimong kasaligan nga kaabag sa publiko ug sa transport sector samtang atong giatubang ang mga hagit sa ekonomiya.”
