The Philippine National Railways (PNR) will suspend operations during Holy Week for its annual rail maintenance from April 6 to 9.
“Itinaon ng PNR sa Semana Santa ang taunang maintenance para hindi makaapekto ang paghinto ng byahe sa mga pasahero nito,” PNR said.
PNR said it will follow normal operating hours on April 5. It will resume normal operations on April 10.
Gearing up for Holy Week
In preparation for Holy Week, the PNR said it deployed additional personnel to ensure safe and smooth flow of operations.
The PNR management also established a help desk to aid those in need and those who will be needing assistance during emergency situations.
PNR will also deploy a “nurse-on-duty” at PNR Tutuban Clinic, as well as “track walkers.”
“Mayroon ding mga PNR ‘quick response teams’ sa Manila, Laguna, Lucena, at Naga na handang sumaklolo, kung sakaling kakailanganin,” PNR said. -ag
