QUEZON CITY, (PIA) -- Department of Transportation (DOTr) Secretary Jaime Bautista on Friday (April 28) led the groundbreaking ceremony Contract Package 102 (CP 102) ng Metro Manila Subway Project (MMSP)

The CP 102 consists of construction of two (2) underground subway stations — Quezon Avenue Station and East Avenue Station.

During the ceremony, Bautista highlighted the benefits that will be brought by the very first subway project for the Filipino people once it becomes operational.

“The subway will not only provide comfort and convenience but also generate jobs. It will definitely be comfortable, affordable, safe, sustainable and accessible,” Bautista said.

"The whole subway will connect with different railway networks, such as LRT 1, MRT 3, MRT 7 and the Grand Common station. It will also connect with LRT 2 at Anonas Station. It will also connect with two stations of the North-South Commuter Rail. We expect the subway to be operational by 2028," Bautista added.
