The Grand Leap Forward: The Inauguration of the LRT-1 Cavite Extension Phase 1
On November 15, 2024, a historic milestone in Philippine transportation was marked with the inauguration of the LRT-1 Cavite Extension Phase 1. President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. officially opened this vital segment of the railway, with operations commencing the following day, November 16, 2024. This long-awaited development introduces five new stations, significantly improving mobility for commuters in Metro Manila and nearby provinces.

LRT 1 EXTENSION CAVITE (STATIONS)

The Five New Stations
Phase 1 extends the LRT-1 line from Baclaran Station to Dr. Santos Station in Parañaque City, adding the following strategically located stations:

1. Redemptorist-Aseana Station
   Situated near Baclaran Church and Aseana City, this station integrates urban and commercial zones, providing easy access to popular landmarks and bustling marketplaces.
2. MIA Road Station
   Serving travelers to the Ninoy Aquino International Airport, this station enhances connectivity to one of the country’s busiest transport hubs.
3. PITX Station
   Adjacent to the Parañaque Integrated Terminal Exchange (PITX), this station serves as a vital transfer point for passengers heading to and from southern Luzon.
4. Ninoy Aquino Avenue Station
   Located along Ninoy Aquino Avenue, this station caters to growing residential and business communities in Parañaque.
5. Dr. Santos Station (formerly Sucat Station)
   Positioned near Dr. A. Santos Avenue, this station is a gateway for Parañaque residents and nearby areas.

Transformative Benefits for CommutersThe LRT-1 Extension's operational debut is set to dramatically transform commuting experiences. Travelers can expect:

• Reduced travel times: A trip from Baclaran to Dr. Santos now takes mere minutes, cutting up to an hour of traffic-related delays.
• Improved connectivity: Links to major landmarks, commercial hubs, and residential areas are now more accessible.
• Eco-friendly transport: With the potential to accommodate 80,000 additional passengers daily, this extension helps reduce the number of vehicles on the road, lowering carbon emissions.

What Lies AheadWhile Phase 1 introduces five new stations, the complete extension will add three more: Las Piñas, Zapote, and Niog Stations, expected in the subsequent phases. Once fully operational, the entire stretch from Baclaran to Niog in Bacoor, Cavite, will reduce travel time to just 25 minutes, serving an estimated 800,000 passengers daily.
A Symbol of ProgressThe inauguration of the LRT-1 Cavite Extension Phase 1 represents more than just infrastructure—it symbolizes progress, resilience, and a vision for a better-connected Philippines. As commuters board the trains, they step into a future of enhanced mobility and endless possibilities.
