hazard risk areas and those who need

affordable housing in planned new

urban areas with good accessibility

Cavite and Laguna areas.

Retrofitting/regeneration of

existing urban areas in integration

with transportation development

(port areas, NAIA, water front, others)

Proposed Dream Plan for Mega Manila

No traffic congestion

No households living in high hazard risk areas

No barrier for seamless mobility

No excessive transport cost burden for low-income groups

No air pollution

5 NOs for Mega Manila

5 Main components of Dream Plan

At-grade roads (urban roads)

Missing links: C3, C5, bridges

and others

New roads (137km)

Flyovers

Sidewalks and pedestrian

facilities

Secondary roads in periurban

areas

Expressways

Intercity expressway (426 km)

Urban expressway (78 km)

Urban/Suburban rails

Main line: 246 km (6 lines)

Secondary line: 72 km (5 lines)

Integrated lines and improved

accessibility

Bus/Jeepneys

Modern fleet and operation

Rationalized route structure

Improved terminals and

interchange facilities

Traffic management

Traffic signals

Traffic safety

Traffic enforcement and

education

Objectives

To strengthen connectivity between Metro Manila

and adjoining municipalities in Region III and IV-A

To guide urban development of new urban centers

along the route to meet large resettlement demands

North-South Commuter Rail (Malolos -

Calamba) 1)

Route length: 91 km

Elevated with modern high capacity train

Future extension to CLARK

EDSA subway: 2nd north-south mass transit

backbone (San Jose Del Monte – Dasmarinas):

75 km 2)

Need for competitive (high quality and capacity) public transport

backbone: North-South Commuter Rail and EDSA Subway

Malolos San Jose Del Monte

Dasmarinas

Calamba 1) F/S is on-going

2) Preliminary study was done in Roadmap Study. 0 5 10 20km

NS Commuter Main Line - Existing line - Extension/new line - Subway Secondary Line

No level crossings at main roads

At-grade urban roads created

Land use are connected

Impact

Promoting north-south urban growth

Dramatic improvement of mobility and

accessibility along EDSA and other roads

New urban land development

opportunities

Impact

Opportunities exist for large-scale new towns development?

Yes!

Large-scale properties owned by

private/public sectors

Active subdivision development by private

sector

Republic Act No. 7279 (20% of total No. of

unites should be allocated for low cost

housing)

Approach: to establish a PPP model based

on regulation, guidance and incentives

Public: north-south commuter rail, access

roads, basic infrastructure and public

services

Private: affordable housing, commercial

facilities, industrial parks, relocation of

universities, etc.

Estimated demand

1–2 million households = 5-10 new towns

(2,000ha with 200,000 residents each)

Clark

Proposed concept for gateway airport development: globally competitive

international gateway airport is a critical driving force for future development of Metro

Manila and the Philippines

Development of CLARK (secondary

gateway airport for central and

northern cluster; alternative to New

the candidate sites)

Proposed Actions

① Improvement of existing NAIA

(immediate)

② Improvement of existing CLARK

(immediate)

③ Utilization of runway @ Sangley

(short-term)

④ Construction of new NAIA near
