Construction has commenced on the first section of the Metro Manila Subway Project with the groundbreaking of the Shaw Boulevard and Ortigas stations last October.

Dubbed as “Project of the Century,” the Metro Manila Subway Project is expected to help solve the metro’s traffic mess and make inter-city travel faster once operational.

The project, which will have 17 stations along its 33-kilometer route, is seen to cut travel time from its Quezon City to NAIA routes, from one hour and 10 minutes, to just 35 minutes.

Higher Property Values

Convenient inter-city travel aside, property consultancy firm Colliers Philippines also sees the project, which is the Philippines’ first-ever underground railway system, raising land and property values in adjacent areas.

“It should also improve accessibility in major business hubs and raise the attractiveness of fringe areas and underserved periphery locations in the capital region ripe for township development,” Colliers Philippines said.

“Colliers also sees the project raising land and property values in locations near the subway’s stations,” Colliers Philippines added.

With this, it would be wise for investors to pursue residential properties near the subway’s stations, the property consultancy firm said.
