Transportation Secretary Arthur Tugade has shared an inside look into the “Common Station” that will connect the LRT Line 1, MRT Line 3, MRT Line 7, and the Metro Manila Subway.
Construction of the station started as early as 2009 but was delayed due to several issues.
Once opened, the station will connect the existing LRT-1 and MRT-3, as well as the MRT Line 7 and the Metro Manila Subway which are under construction.

“Ang groundbreaking ceremony ng proyekto ay isinagawa noong September 29, 2017, matapos nating makumbinsi ang ilang higanteng conglomerates na i-set aside ang anumang issue at hindi pagkakaunawaan ukol sa lokasyon ng pasilidad,” he added.
The common station will be located on North Avenue in Quezon City.
The Department of Transportation earlier said the common station would have a 13,700-square meter concourse area where passengers could transfer between railway systems. (NM)
