“The Department of Transportation and Communications [DOTC] approved the request from the National Historical Commission to give the public free rides in order to provide them convenience and mobility to participate in activities organized by various government agencies in the metropolis,” Cabrera said.

In line with DOTC’s mandate to provide the public with safe and secure travel, the LRTA will continue to observe “No inspection, No entry policy” which includes all wrapped gifts in all of its stations.
