Department of Transportation (DOTr) will mark the first five stations of the Manila-Clark Railway Project

Traveling from Manila to Clark in 55 minutes is now within reach.

On Monday, 26 June 2017, the Department of Transportation (DOTr) will mark the first five stations of the Manila-Clark Railway Project (Tutuban, Valenzuela, Caloocan, Meycauayan, and Marilao stations), which will form part of the 106 km venture that will connect Manila to Central Luzon.

DOTr Secretary Arthur Tugade said that the Manila-Clark Railway Project is one of the high-impact projects of President Rodrigo Duterte under the government’s BUILDBUILDBUILD program.

The Manila-Clark Railway Project shall benefit 350,000 passengers daily on its first year of operations alone, which is equivalent to 10.5 million passengers a month.
