CBRT faces delay

Both inauguration dates were then canceled.

Currently, the official launch remains indefinitely delayed, as no formal announcement has been made on its new launch date.

Archival, for his part, said that full operations of the project's Package 1 will not immediately follow the inauguration. He stressed that the previous dry runs only covered the stretch from Fuente to the station at the South Bus Terminal.

The mayor disclosed that he suggested a more comprehensive route to the DOTr, one that covers the SRP to South Terminal, Jones Avenue, Fuente, and Ayala. This, however, still needs to be finalized, either before the year ends or by January 2026.

"Kinihanglan lingkuran pa gyud ni ang rota nga klaro," he said, stressing that the system must be tested thoroughly before the wider rollout.
