Metro Manila commuters are set to benefit from a new bus route linking Tutuban (Divisoria) to Alabang, and vice versa, with stops conveniently located near the existing Philippine National Railways (PNR) route. Here's your guide to the new PNR/LTFRB Transport Augmentation.



Suspension of PNR Metro Commuter Line

On March 8, 2024, DOTr announced the suspension of the Philippine National Railways (PNR) operations starting March 28, 2024, suspending services for the Governor Pascual (Malabon) to Tutuban (Manila) and Tutuban to Alabang (Muntinlupa City) routes.


The suspension of services will impact PNR stations located in Alabang, Sucat, Bicutan, Nichols, EDSA, Pasay Road, Dela Rosa, Vito Cruz, San Andres, Paco, Tutuban, and Governor Pascual.

This temporary halt in PNR operations at these stations is aimed at preventing disruptions and ensuring passenger safety while expediting the construction of the North-South Commuter Railway (NSCR) System in Metro Manila.
