Transportation Secretary Arthur Tugade said the PNR San Pablo-Lucena route would not only link the rail line to the Bicol network, but would also unlock economic potentials and enhance mobility in Southern Luzon.
“Mahalaga rin po na sabihin na itong rutang ito ay convertible hindi lamang papuntang Bicol, kundi maging convertible na maging commercial route dito sa Lucena,” Tugade said. Once operations resume, the line will have two terminal stations and four flag stops in between, with travel time of 1 hour and 32 minutes from Lucena to San Pablo.
The DOTr earlier signed a P142-billion contract with Chinese companies to build the first 380 kilometers of the PNR Bicol Project from Banlic, Calamba to Daraga, Albay.
