Features/Service: Philippines.
The Light Rapid Transit System (LRT) is a low-carbon
mass transportation system with a green design. It
supports the ecology and economy of the region's long-
term growth. Meanwhile, it stimulates an increase in
people flow both within the city and across areas, while
also motivating the region's development potential. In
comparison to other modes of transportation, LRT is a
zero-emission, high-capacity method of transportation
that can transport more people than buses. It travels on
elevated rails that can be completely isolated, ensuring a
rapid, safe, and dependable operational environment for
the system. The LRT System serves the majority of the
city's metropolitan regions, establishing excellent
conditions for cross-border land transport connections
between Macao and neighboring places, eventually
allowing the region's integration. The region can be
further connected through various modes of
transportation by connecting rail networks.
