Manuyo Uno LRT Station

Las Piñas, Philippines

The Manila Light Rail Transit Line 1, commonly referred to as LRT Line 1 or LRT-1, is a light rapid transit line in Metro Manila, Philippines, and as part of the Manila Light Rail Transit System. Originally referred to as Metrorail and the Yellow Line, LRT Line 1 was reclassified as the Green Line in 2012. It travels in a general north–south direction from Dr. Santos to Monumento, and then east–west from Monumento to Fernando Poe Jr. Currently, the line consists of 25 stations and runs on 26 kilometers (16 miles) of fully elevated route. Although it has the characteristics of light rail, such as with the type of rolling stock used, it is more akin to a rapid transit system owing to its total grade separation and high passenger throughput. First envisioned in a 1977 study conducted by Freeman Fox and Associates which suggested a street-level railway in Manila, the government revised this recommendation to an elevated system. In 1980, President Ferdinand Marcos created the Light Rail Transit Authority (LRTA) and construction of the line began the following year. With its partial opening in 1984 and completion the following year, it became the first rapid transit service in Southeast Asia. In 2015, the operation of the line was privatized and transferred to the Light Rail Manila Corporation (LRMC), which also oversaw the line's extension to Cavite, partially completed in 2024. LRT
