Senator Grace Poe has suggested the designation of business-class coaches in the Metropolitan Rail Transit (MRT-3) to ease the traffic congestion in EDSA.

Poe raised the proposal during the Senate finance subcommittee’s deliberation of the Department of Transportation’s proposed 2020 budget Thursday while she was asking transport officials for updates on the rehabilitation of the MRT-3.

“This person suggested to me that you can charge maybe 300 percent more per passenger, sabihin natin P200 or P300 per passenger ang sasakay doon , may guaranteed space and designated line,” she added.Poe said he initially thought that having a business-class section in the MRT-3 would be “discriminatory”, but later realized that “some people are paying more for better services.”

“‘Di na one class, na puro regular . May ordinary, business, first-class, at saka express,” Tugade said. There are 15 trains, or 45 coaches, operating at present, he said. Twenty trains should be operating in the rail system.
