THE Metro Manila Subway Project will be partially operational by 2028 or before the end of the term of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. According to the Department of Transportation the Metro Manila subway will reach the country’s main airport. "Maybe not the whole 33km," Transportation Secretary Jaime Bautista said. The work on the subway, billed as the "Project of the Century," is said to be speeding up their construction as the government is bringing in more boring machines. According to Bautista, the current boring machine is expected to reach Quirino Avenue from Valenzuela before 2023 ends. He also said that two more boring tunnel boring machines will be used to bore a tunnel from Metrowalk to Shaw Boulevard are also set to arrive. "By February, we will have 6 boring machines so the work will go faster," he said. According to Bautista, the Metro Manila Subway will start from Valenzuela and go through Quezon City, Pasig, Makati and all the way to Ninoy Aquino International Airport Terminal 3 and Bicutan. From there, it will go on the North South Commuter Railway and reach all the way to Calamba.
