Manila Metro Rail Transit System


The Manila Metro Rail Transit System is one of the two rapid transit systems serving Metro Manila in the Philippines along with the Manila Light Rail Transit System. It originally began as a single line that was first opened in 1999 and became fully operational by the year 2000. Since then, most of the newly proposed rapid rail lines within Metro Manila that are not under the jurisdiction of the Light Rail Transit Authority is associated with the "MRT" brand. This includes the Line 9 and the elevated Line 7 which are being built as of January 2020.

Network

There is currently only one light metro/light rail line in operation but there are two heavy rail lines under construction. In recent years, there are proposals to extend the system. The system is intended to have seven lines as of 2019, with at least 49 stations across of track. Until 2019, almost all proposed lines were given odd numbers.

Future lines

As of 2019, there are two lines under construction, one approved awaiting construction, and four lines awaiting approval.
