00:00Breaking news to our fellow commuters.
00:03The MRT-3's operation time will be extended from this Sunday.
00:08This is approved by the commuters who had a hard time getting home last night.
00:12Live from Cancun City, we have the first news from Bam Alegre.

00:20Good morning. The MRT-3 has an overtime OT last night.
00:24The operation time will be extended for the passengers.
00:31R.J. Nabo's employee had a hard time getting home last night.
00:35The MRT-3 will be deducted from those who will be chosen as transportation
00:39because it's last trip was from North Avenue Station at 9.30 p.m.
00:43In Taft Avenue Station, the last train left at 10.09 p.m.
00:47That's why when he found out that there's a directive to extend the operating hours of the MRT,
00:51it was approved by him.
00:53It's better because more people are riding the MRT at night, especially those from the mall.
00:58Yesterday, DOTR Secretary Vince Dizon inspected several MRT-3 stations.
01:03He instructed the management of Metro Rail Transit to extend the operating hours of the train at night.
01:08Aside from this, he also instructed the management of the MRT
01:11to increase the number of passengers who can ride the MRT during peak hours.
01:15According to Secretary Dizon, they plan to implement this this Sunday.
01:19Another employee, Carl Bernardo, also said
01:22it's better to extend the operating hours of the MRT for people like him
01:26who come home late from work.
01:28Those who come home late, especially those from the mall,
01:31they are pitiful because they don't have a choice to ride the MRT.
01:34Although there's a base carousel, it's important to have a second choice.
01:44It's now 4.36 a.m. and the first train left from MRT North Avenue Station.
01:49As for the traffic situation, it's already rush hour
01:51so it's moderate to heavy traffic here in EDSA Southbound Lane and North Avenue.
01:56But in the EDSA bus carousel, we can still see a lot of buses lined up for our commuters.
02:02This is the first news from Casa City.
