DOTr eyes PPP for LRT-2 west extension

The Department of Transportation (DOTr) is considering implementing the Light Rail Transit Line 2 (LRT-2) west extension through a public-private partnership (PPP) scheme.

Transportation Undersecretary Cesar Chavez said most LRT-2 projects are funded by official development assistance, and they are studying if the West Extension project can be implemented under PPP.

The government is exploring this route due to limited fiscal space caused by the pandemic's impact on the economy.
