As more stations come online, the RRTS will play a vital role in supporting economic growth, reducing travel times, and promoting sustainable urban development.

This development is part of the broader effort to enhance public transportation infrastructure across the NCR, making it easier for residents to commute, access jobs, and participate in the region's growing economy. The RRTS network is expected to serve millions of passengers annually, providing a reliable and efficient alternative to road travel.
