LRT Line 1

Extracted from the Wikipedia article LRT Line 1 (Metro Manila).

LRT Line 1 is one of the busiest among Metro Manila's three rapid transit lines, as it currently serves roughly 440,000 passengers daily. The line is integrated with the public transit system in Metro Manila, and passengers also take various forms of road-based public transport, such as buses and jeepneys, to and from a station to reach their intended destination. Although the line aimed to reduce traffic congestion and travel times in Metro Manila, the transportation system has only been partially successful due to the rising number of motor vehicles and rapid urbanization. Expanding the network's revenue line to accommodate more passengers, through extension projects, is set on resolving this problem.
