THE Department of Transportation (DoTr) plans to start inviting prospective bidders for the privatization of the operations and maintenance of Metro Rail Transit Line 3 (MRT-3) and Light Rail Transit Line 2 (LRT-2) by the second half of the year.
METRO Pacific Investments Corp. s (MPIC) unsolicited offer to take over the operations and maintenance (O&M) of the Metro Rail Transit (MRT) Line 3 could be derailed after a Transportation department official disclosed that San Miguel Corp. (SMC) had secured original proponent status (OPS) for a similar offer.
THE Manila Rail Transit (MRT-3) on Friday announced that it will give free rides to government employees from September 18 to 20 in celebration of the 123rd Philippine Civil Service Anniversary.
All major train lines across the National Capital Region halted operations this Thursday morning after a magnitude 6.2 earthquake rocked various parts of Luzon for the purposes of safety inspections within the various railways systems.
