The Department of Transportation (DOTr) and Philippine National Railways (PNR) has officially extended rail services to Malabon City with the opening of the PNR Governor Pascual Station on December 3, 2018. With the new station, the PNR will provide four trips daily from Tutuban, Manila to Governor Pascual, Malabon, and vice versa. The Philippine National Railways (PNR) Bicol construction is set to begin soon after the Department of Transportation (DOTr) signed the contract for the PHP 142-billion project. The DOTr has contracted a joint venture of three Chinese firms to develop the first 380km of the PNR Bicol project. This milestone is a huge leap towards realizing this long-awaited project – the PNR Bicol or the South Long Haul Project. We are grateful to our development partners from China for supporting us in this endeavor and believing that the Filipino people deserve an improved quality of life," said DOTr Secretary Art Tugade. Moreover, the DOTr also mentioned that CREC JV ranked 35th on the Fortune Global 500 list and 5th among China's top 500 enterprises in 2021. The first 380 kilometers of PNR Bicol from Banlic, Calamba to Daraga, Albay will span 39 cities and municipalities, four provinces, and two regions.
