Unlimited free rides from June 15 to 30
Together with Global Electric Transport (GET) Philippines, LRT-1 private operator Light Rail Manila Corporation (LRMC) announces the launch of the extended ParaƱaque Integrated Terminal Exchange (PITX) – Makati shuttle service route for LRT-1 Riders Club members.
LRT-1 Riders Club is the organization of LRT-1 passengers entitled to different membership benefits, such as unlimited shuttle service rides through the GETPASS App. In March 2022, LRMC and GET officially teamed up for the shuttle service that features the Community Optimized Managed Electric Transport (COMET) – a world-class, air-conditioned, fully electric, and zero-emission minibus with a capacity of 30 passengers and travel range of over 100 kilometers on a single full charge. The pilot implementation saw the electric shuttle service running between LRT-1 EDSA Station and the Manila Bay ASEANA area with designated loading/unloading points along Macapagal Boulevard until PITX. During the free ride period of 30 March to 14 May 2022, the COMET shuttle service was able to serve over 6,000 passengers.
