00:00At the opening of the additional station of Light Rail Transit 1,

00:05we are joined by Atty. Hernando Cabrera,

00:09Administrator of Light Rail Transit Authority or LRTA.

00:13Atty. Cabrera, good afternoon to you.

00:17Good afternoon, good afternoon to our viewers, to our listeners.

00:22For the public's information,

00:24what new stations have been opened in the LRT1 Cavite Extension

00:30and what places are linked to these stations?

00:34Well, Nina, the extension of our LRT Line 1,

00:38the end of it, our original line,

00:41to Baclaran.

00:42So we opened an additional five stations.

00:46The first one is what we call the Redemptorist Asiana Station.

00:51This is almost in front of Baclaran Church,

00:55on Meruas Boulevard.

00:56Next is what we call the Mia Road Station.

01:00This is on the corner of Meruas Boulevard

01:05before entering Costal Expressway.

01:07So that is our Mia Road Station.

01:09Third is the PITX Station.

01:12This is located in our Intermodal Station

01:15where our buses are located.

01:18So there will be an Intermodal Terminal.

01:22You can ride a bus, you can ride a train.

01:26The next station is what we call the Ninoy Aquino Avenue Station.

01:31The fifth is the Dr. Santos Station

01:34which we know is Sukat Road.

01:37So those are our five stations.

01:39Good afternoon, Administrator Cabrera.

01:42How many minutes will these routes save on travel time?

01:46And how many additional passengers will be able to ride these new stations?

01:53The trip from Dr. Santos to Baclaran,

02:00if you used to just ride a jeep or any other mode of transport there,

02:06it would take you around 20 minutes to 25 minutes.

02:11In fact, the additional passengers will be around 80,000.

02:23That's the existing ridership of Line 1.

02:29With the help of these new stations,

02:32you said that the traffic will be reduced in the southern part of Metro Manila.

02:39Attorney Cabrera, do you have any data

02:41on how many vehicles or motorists are expected to be reduced on the routes?

02:48Oh, I didn't get my list.

02:54But the good thing about this is that

02:58our projection is that instead of riding a jeep or bus,

03:08there will be more vehicles.

03:10It would really take them to ride a train.

03:16From Dr. Santos to Baclaran,

03:20all the way to EDSA,

03:23and then all the way to Dijose Station,

03:27where there is an interconnection.

03:29You can go down to Dijose Station.

03:32There is an elevated walkway. It's very safe.

03:34You can walk.

03:36It's an elevated walkway. You can switch to Line 2.

03:40And then, the end is what we call Fernando Po Jr. Station.

03:46It's already there in the former Roosevelt, in EDSA.

03:49Can you describe to us

03:51what the looks of the vehicles of our countrymen are like?

03:55Are they new?

03:57How comfortable are they?

03:59And how many can a train ride?

04:04Well, with our extension project here,

04:09the government bought 30 additional trains.

04:15Each train has 4 wagons.

04:17So in total, we bought 120 wagons for this project.

04:24So 120 wagons totaling 230 trains.

04:29These new trains are very modern.

04:33The air-conditioning is very cold.

04:36We saw the inaugural ride of President Bongbong Marcos earlier

04:42from Dr. Santos to the Redemptories Asiana Station.

04:48The big wagons,

04:51if I remember it correctly,

04:55the new wagons,

04:57a train set composing of 4 wagons,

05:02can be ridden by around 1,200 passengers.

05:07Atty. Cabrera, how many stations are expected to be opened

05:11in the LRT-1 Cavite Extension?

05:13And when is it expected to be opened?

05:18The extension we opened is what we call Phase 1.

05:22This is in the Paranaque area.

05:24Phase 2, we will reach Las Piñas.

05:31Phase 3, we will reach Bacoor Cavite,

05:35in the Talaba area.

05:38If you live in that area,

05:40you will see St. Dominic,

05:42where the end of Phase 3 is located.

05:46We will add three more stations,

05:50Sapote Station,

05:52Las Piñas Station,

05:54and the end of St. Dominic Station.

05:59All right.

06:00When will we ride that, Arnel?

06:02You can try it.

06:04It looks like the new trains are beautiful.

06:07Thank you very much for your time,

06:09Atty. Hernando Cabrera,

06:12Administrator of the Light Rail Transit Authority or LRTA.
