A. Tutuban to Malolos Railway Project (Phase 1)
The North-South Commuter Railway (NSCR) project, which is also called PNR North
1, is a 37.9-kilometer railway connecting Malolos, Bulacan to Tutuban, Manila.
The NSCR is expected to reduce travel time from Malolos to Tutuban to only 35
minutes from the current one hour and 30 minutes when it is completed. It is scheduled
for opening in December 2021 and aims to service more than 300,000 every day.
The project is only one part of the government’s plan to connect the National Capital
Region, Region 3 and Region 4-A. It also aims to construct PNR North 2, a line connecting
Clark International Airport to the New Clark City, and PNR South Commuter to Los Baños,
Laguna.
The Philippine National Railway (PNR) North 2 Malolos-Clark railway is among the
government’s flagship infrastructure projects to decongest Manila, which will link Malolos,
Bulacan to Clark International Airport and Clark Green City.
The project is targeted to start construction by the third quarter of 2019, and
completed by 2024. (Latest)
Project Details
The project will support the construction of the 53-kilometer (km) section of a new
railway line connecting Metro Manila and the regional center in Clark and the Clark
International Airport, located in the Central Luzon Region around 100 km north of Manila.
The new railway line will provide affordable, reliable and safe public transport, reduce
greenhouse gas emissions and cut the journey time by half (compared with public bus
services) to less than one hour. The project will be co-financed by Japan International
Cooperation Agency (JICA).
Central Luzon Link Expressway (CLLEx) is a toll road currently under construction in
Central Luzon region that will connect the Subic–Clark–Tarlac Expressway (SCTEx) and
Tarlac–Pangasinan–La Union Expressway (TPLEx) to the currently under-construction
North Luzon East Expressway in Cabanatuan towards San Jose, Nueva Ecija.
The DOTr wants to extend the planned Manila-Clark railway line to San Fernando,
La Union; Tarlac and Tuguegarao. It said the Japan-funded P316 billion Manila-Clark
railway line, comprised of two phases, will start construction by end-2017 or early 2018.
That project involved a long-haul line from Manila to San Fernando spanning 266-
km, an extension from San Jose City in Nueva Ecija to Cagayan Province, and a 55-km
branch line from Tarlac Province to San Jose City.
The first phase of the project is the 38-kilometer line from Tutuban in Manila to
Malolos in Bulacan. This is set to begin by no later than Jan. 6, 2018, the DOTr said.
Figure 3 - Manila – Clark Railway System Map
It is a 71-kilometer single-track railway between the Port of Subic Bay and Clark
International Airport with additional 15 kilometer extension to the New Clark City.
The integration of the North Luzon Expressway (NLEX) and the Subic-Clark-Tarlac
Expressway and the upgrading and modernization of the Clark International Airport paved
the way for an improved and easier travel to and from the Central Luzon provinces which
is a come-on for businessmen and tourists.
Data from the Department of Tourism-Region 3 showed 4.1 million tourist arrivals
for 2016 with Subic and Clark topping the list of destinations.
