The mass-rapid transit (MRT) in Pampanga province, Philippines, will consist of five transport lines, including four bus rapid transit lines and one light rail line. The MRT system aims to link Pampanga's cities and municipalities and generate economic activity by improving access to transport, reducing congestion and time spent on transportation, as well as lowering carbon dioxide emissions and exposure to air pollution.
