00:00Traveling from Alabang, Montinlupa to Clark, Pampanga in less than an hour.
00:06It's just one of the many North-South Commuter Railway Projects
00:10that have high-tech trains like the ones in other countries.
00:13When will we be able to ride them?
00:15Joseph Moro is on the scene.
00:19Fast, reliable, and high-tech.
00:22That's how the North-South Commuter Railway Project, or NSCR, will experience their trains.
00:28The trains are new, and there are no abroad fields.
00:32Transportation Secretary Jaime Bautista has already sampled
00:35how it will run through a train simulator.
00:39Trains like this will be used in NSCR when that line is already running,
00:45just like the trains used in Japan.
00:48As of now, according to the DOTR,
00:50they are still studying how many will be used for massaging,
00:53but this will not be far from massaging in MRT and LRT.
00:57We'll make this affordable.
00:59For sure, this will be at least as far with the fares of buses and jeeps.
01:07Right now, the present fares of MRT-1, LRT-1, LRT-2, and MRT-3
01:18are cheaper than regular bus and jeep fares.
01:24There are more than 51 trainsets for commuters in the entire NSCR line,
01:29and there are 7 dedicated trainsets that are express,
01:32that will travel directly to Clark International Airport in Pampanga
01:36from its station in Buendia and Alabang.
01:39The journey is only 40 minutes.
01:42The entire NSCR runs from Calamba to Clark,
01:46but according to the Department of Transportation,
01:49West Valenzuela will be the first to be operational
01:52until Clark, which is part of it, in the first half of 2028.
01:5695% of the time, Balagtas Station in Bulacan
02:00is the earliest to be completed out of the 30 stations of the NSCR.
02:04The station is spacious and there are elevators.
02:08It is also environment-friendly because it is bright
02:11and does not require a lot of light every day.
02:15In Clark, 80% of the time, the station is finished
02:18right next to Clark International Airport.
02:21But if the entire NSCR project will be completed,
02:24only 40% of the time will be completed.
02:27The portion of the NSCR in Metro Manila from Valenzuela
02:30to Sukat sa Paranaque will face challenges in the right-of-way.
02:35We will be in Buendia, Edsa,
02:38and then we will have to relocate 13,000 informal settlers
02:44from Manila to Calamba.
02:46The entire project will be completed by 2031.
02:50By the time the project is operational,
02:52it will provide more than 10,000 jobs
02:55under the Philippine Railway Institute.
02:58For GMA Integrated News, Joseph Morong,
03:01for Tutok 24 Horas.
