Only after all these tests are completed, the products are packaged, finished, and exported for installation at the project site.
The Malolos-Clark Railway Project is 53.1 km long, connecting Malolos City to the Clark Economic Zone and Clark International Airport (CIA) in Central Luzon, the Philippines. Upon completion in 2025, the MCRP is expected to reduce travel time between these two areas to less than an hour. The project is financed by the Department of Transportation (DOTr) and the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA). It is the first airport express railway service in the country.
