PNR South Line running 72-km from Tutuban to Los Bantildeos Laguna andLRT-2 East and West extension lines are also on the list
The DOTr cited ldquoLine 5ardquo a railway ldquospur linerdquo to the Makati centralbusiness district which would use an existing tunnel In Cebu there wouldbe a 25-km rail project costing P98 billion a 25-km Central Philippine Railworth P86 billion and a 2000-km Mindanao Rail project
Therersquos also a proposed Manila-Clark (Pampanga) railway which willldquoguaranteerdquo one hour travel time from the capital district to Clark Airport
Already under construction is the P71-billion MRT-7 line that will link MetroManila (Quezon City) to Bulacan This would be finished by 2020 and will beoperated by San Miguel Corp
The DOTr said most of the projects would be done or partially openedduring the term of President Duterte
There was also a proposed 14-kilometer subway line linking businessdistricts in Metro Manila But this would be finished beyond 2022 when MrDutertersquos term ends the DOTr said
The DPWH and Bases Conversion and Development Authority also outlinedsome road projects
These included the Santa Monica-Lawton-Bonifacio Global City link bridge(to decongest Edsa by 100000 vehicles) the University of the Philippines-Miriam College-Ateneo De Manila Viaduct the Iloilo-Guimaras-Negros-CebuLink Bridge and the Davao City Bypass Construction Project
The Duterte team would also see the completion of two Metro Manilatollroads linking North Luzon Expressway and South Luzon Expresswayduring its term
These are the Metro Manila Skyway Stage 3 of SMC which was started in2014 and would be finished by 2017 or 2018 and Metro Pacificrsquos connectorroad which would be finished by 2020
Metro Pacific is also starting the Cavite Laguna Expressway this year withcompletion seen by the end of 2019 The government meanwhile said it would pursue a Bus Rapid Transitproject
In September 2016 the board of the National Economic and DevelopmentAuthority approved the P38-billion Metro Manila BRT project
This is a 486-km system covering Monumento to Diosdado MacapagalAveRoxas Boulevard with integrated routes between the Ortigas BusinessDistrict Bonifacio Global City and Makati Business District
The BRT has defining features the core of which is a dedicated bus lanewith specialized buses and stations Buses for example would have the

same height as station platforms speeding up the boarding and unloadingprocess
The BRT which would occupy Edsarsquos center lanes would replace buses inthe yellow lanes on the rightmost lanes of the major thoroughfare
The DOTr said the plan was expected to cut road congestion significantlyand in a more cost-efficient manner as the BRT has done in dozens of othercities around the world (A BRT project in Cebu is due for completion in2019)
The DOTr also listed a cable car system project Potential locations would bealong Pasig River Boracay and Baguio
New infrastructure projects in the air sector are focused on modernizingand expanding existing gateways This included the P75-billion NinoyAquino International Airport Public Private Partnership Project
Approved by the Neda board in September this PPP has yet to be officiallyrolled out to participants despite the high-level of interest from bigconglomerates
There is also the P108-billion PPP deal to modernize develop and operatethe Bacolod-Silay Iloilo Davao Laguindingan and New Bohol air gateways
The current administration in a surprise move decided to bid out theairports individually instead of in packages comprising several airportsmdashdelaying the process further
The DOTr also wants to modernize Clark International Airport whilerelocating general aviation services to either Clark or Sangley Point inCavite This would help decongest Naia which is now operating wellbeyond its intended capacity
On the maritime sector the Philippine Ports Authority will scrap the P19-billion Davao Sasa modernization project Instead it will pursue a down-scaled version worth about P49 billion
The administration is likewise planning to revive the Pasig River FerryService and the broader roll-on roll-off service for inter-island travelaround the country
A number of projects under the PPP framework are slated for deployment
As of Dec 15 2016 the PPP Center has outlined 38 projects in its pipelinevalued at P56 trillion (The amount was mainly on account of thereclamation component of the Manila Bay Integrated Flood Control andExpressway which is still under study)
Thus far none of the PPPs under procurement that were left hanging by theAquino administration have progressed during the Duterte administration
