== Structure ==
The entire avenue forms part of [[Circumferential Road 4]] (C-4) of [[Metro Manila's arterial road network]], National Route 1 (N1) of the [[Philippine highway network]] and Asian Highway 26 (AH26) of the [[Asian Highway Network]].<ref name="dashboard" /> The locations around the avenue were marked with great economic and industrial growth, proven by the fact that all but two industrial centers in the Metropolis are directly accessible from the thoroughfare. The decent economic growth of the areas around the avenue adds a significant volume of traffic on the avenue, and in recent estimates,<ref name="EDSA vehicles">{{cite news |title=Inquirer Headlines: EDSA|url=http://newsinfo.inquirer.net/inquirerheadlines/metro/view/20090708-214545/Average-vehicle-speed-on-Edsa-is-3624kph|newspaper=Philippine Daily Inquirer|date=July 7, 2009|access-date=July 9, 2012}}</ref> and an average of 385,096 vehicles go through it every day.<ref>{{Cite web |year=2022 |title=Metropolitan Manila Annual Average Daily Traffic (AADT) 2022 |url=https://mmda.gov.ph/images/Home/FOI/Annual-Average-Daily-Traffic-AADT/AADT_2022.pdf |access-date=February 2, 2024 |publisher=[[Metropolitan Manila Development Authority]]}}</ref>
The avenue is a divided [[carriageway]], often consisting of 12 lanes, 6 in either direction, with the elevated railroads [[MRT Line 3 (Metro Manila)|Manila Metro Rail Transit System Line 3]] and [[LRT Line 1 (Metro Manila)|Manila Light Rail Transit System Line 1]] often serving as its median. Although it is not an [[Controlled-access highway|expressway]], traffic rules and speed limits are strictly implemented to the vehicles that pass along it. It is operated by the [[Metropolitan Manila Development Authority]] and is maintained and constantly being repaired by the [[Department of Public Works and Highways]], whose maintenance over EDSA excludes the extension from [[Roxas Boulevard]] to [[SM Mall of Asia]] in Pasay.<ref name="dashboard" />
