New momentum for PPPs in infrastructure development
Manila Bulletin
|July 21 2025
The recent greenlighting by the Department of Economy, Planning, and Development (DEPDev) of the Operations and Maintenance (O&M) component of the North-South Commuter Railway (NSCR) under a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) arrangement is a promising signal that the country is once again embracing a proven pathway to fast-track infrastructure development.
-
This move not only revives a key initiative that defined the infrastructure thrust of the Aquino administration but also brings into sharp focus the capacity of the private sector to complement government efforts in delivering efficient, high-impact public services.
The NSCR project, one of the most ambitious railway systems ever undertaken in the country, will cover a total of 147 kilometers from Clark in Central Luzon to Calamba in Laguna. Spanning 35 stations across 28 cities and municipalities, the elevated rail system will serve up to one million passengers daily and is expected to transform daily commuting across Metro Manila and its surrounding regions.
