MANILA, Philippines — Transportation Secretary Vince Dizon joined MRT-3 commuters on Monday to personally inspect train and station conditions while gathering feedback on ways to improve services.
Dizon visited several major stations, including Taft, Ayala, and Shaw Boulevard, where he engaged with passengers about their experiences and suggestions for enhancements.
Recognizing the need for immediate upgrades, he assured the public that the Department of Transportation (DOTr) is focusing on key improvements. These include reducing passenger queues, improving station entry and exit, repainting faded markings, and fixing defective turnstiles to ease congestion.
Additionally, Dizon committed to enhancing station lighting in poorly lit areas and constructing covered walkways to provide smoother connections between MRT stations and nearby transport terminals for buses and jeepneys.
“These improvements are crucial for passenger safety and convenience. We are working to ensure a better and more efficient experience for MRT-3 commuters,” Dizon said.
