00:00The Light Rail Transit Line 1 or LRT 1 announced the extension of its train service starting today
00:06to accommodate more passengers and improve accessibility for late-night commuters.
00:10Our PTV's Isaiah Mirafuentes tells us more.
00:15Good news for LRT 1 commuters.
00:17Starting tonight, operating hours will be extended by 30 minutes.
00:21In the new LRT 1 schedule, the last train will depart at 10.30 pm from Dr. Santa station,
00:26while the last train from Fernando Po Jr. station leaves at 10.45 pm.
00:30According to LRMC, there will be no change in the first train departure time.
00:34The first train will still depart at 4.30 am from both Fernando Po Jr. station and Dr. Santa station.
00:41The extended operating hours aim to assist commuters heading home at night or working the night shift.
00:57LRT 1 has 25 stations and any extension, of course, will take longer to reach the last train.
01:06From the line to the depot, there are maintenance works.
01:09Of course, we need to do this to ensure the continuous availability,
01:14reliability, and safety of our service.
01:17The extended operating hours will only be applicable on weekdays,
01:20while on weekends, the regular schedule applies.
01:23On weekends, the last train departs at 9.30 pm from Dr. Santa station
01:27and 9.45 pm from Fernando Po Jr. station.
01:31The LRMC hopes the extension of operating hours will add 6,000 more passengers to the LRT 1 ridership.
01:38We will continue to monitor the situation,
01:40but we assure them that we will implement initiatives to mitigate any impact.
01:48However, the increase in fare for LRT 1 will push through starting April 2.
01:52The cheapest single journey ticket would now be P20, up from P15.
