Transport
Maruaya relies on Piddig's local transport system. Tricycles serve the barangay-level routes; jeepneys and multicabs link residents to Piddig's commercial district, public schools, and government offices. Buyers who commute daily to an employment center outside Piddig should evaluate the nearest bus or P2P terminal for their specific route.
