Do you take the Light Rail Transit Line 2 (LRT-2) from Santolan Station regularly? If you do, but it’s actually some distance from your home, you might find this useful: Beginning today, April 27, 2026, free parking is now available daily at the LRT-2 Santolan Station for passengers with validated tickets.

This, along with the 50% discount on train rides for all passengers, is part of the government’s initiative to encourage the use of public transportation among vehicle owners. “Malaki ang matitipid kaysa kumonsumo sila ng gasolina o diesel na mataas pa rin ang presyo,” said Secretary Giovanni Lopez of the Department of Transportation. “Di lang yan, mapapabilis pa ang kanilang biyahe tungo sa kanilang destinasyon.”
