00:12by following the MRT 3's lead. BTV correspondent Isaiah Mirafuentes has the full story.
00:21Good news for commuters because you no longer have to rush to catch an MRT train when going
00:26home or going to work. Starting tonight, the operating hours of MRT 3 have been extended.

00:38hours will be longer. Under the new schedule, North Avenue station will close at 10.25 pm
00:44for the last southbound trip, while for the northbound trip, the last train will depart
00:48from Taft Avenue at 11.04 pm. The southbound Magallanes station, on the other hand,
00:54will close at 10.53 pm, while the northbound Gesun Avenue station will close at 11.32 pm.
