It will add 11 kilometers to the existing railway system and is expected to service up to 800,000 passengers per day. It is also expected to increase and enhance commercial development around the rail stations.
Commuters can expect comfortable, reliable, and modern integrated transport riding the LRT-1 because travel time from Pasay City to Cavite will be cut down from an hour and a half to just 25 to 30 minutes.
The LRT-1 is Metro Manila's ISO-certified train system that is being operated and maintained by Light Rail Manila Corp. (LRMC), a joint venture company of Metro Pacific Investments Corp.'s Metro Pacific Light Rail Corp. (MPLRC), Ayala Corp.'s AC Infrastructure Holdings Corp. (AC Infra), Sumitomo Corp., and the Philippine Investment Alliance for Infrastructure's Macquarie Investments Holdings (Philippines) PTE Ltd. (MIHPL).
LRMC assumed operations and maintenance of LRT-1 in September 2015 through a P65-billion, 32-year concession agreement with the Department of Transportation (DOTr) and the Light Rail Transit Authority (LRTA).
On Oct. 12, 2014, LRMC signed a Concession Agreement with the DOTr and LRTA for the P65-billion LRT-1 Cavite Extension, Operation & Maintenance Project which is part of the 2011-2016 Philippine Development Plan to accelerate infrastructure.
LRMC is working with Bouygues Travaux Publics as the Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) contractor for this much-anticipated LRT-1 extension. A global player in construction operating in more than 80 countries from five continents, Bouygues Travaux Publics is an expert in large-scale projects involving tunnels, engineering structures, as well as road, port and rail infrastructure.
Just recently, President Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr. (PBBM) led the inauguration of the LRT-1 Cavite Extension Project Phase 1. This is the first railway project that will be completed under his administration.
