Greetings DOTR!
I would like to request for the Projected Capacity of Each MRT-7 Station (number of passengers daily), at least for the first year of its operation. The data is for our research on consumer/commuter behavior post-pandemic/new normal in relation to upcoming railway projects.
I look forward to your positive feedback.
Kind regards,
Chermela Tiongson

Hi Kriscia,
Good day! I previously requested for the average daily ridership of existing railways and one of that is MRT-3. I was able to receive the MRT-3 data on July 9 through email.
A component of our academic study is also anticipating how commuter behavior may change once the new railway projects are completed. Thus, the request for the data on MRT-7's projected average daily ridership.
I hope this clarifies it. Please let me know should you have other questions.
Appreciate your response.
Thank you.

Dear Chermela Tiongson,
I refer to my letter of Jul 27, 2021 11:21:02 AM; about your request under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch, for Projected Capacity or Daily Ridership of Each MRT-7 Station.
Our response to your request is due on Aug 17, 2021 11:21:02 AM. Unfortunately, it is taking longer than expected to deal with your request because we are still awaiting for the data that we requested from MRT-7 PMO.
I apologize for this delay but have applied for an extension so we could work further on your request. We hope to be able to send you a response on or before Sep 14, 2021 11:21:02 AM.
Should you have any questions regarding your request, kindly contact me using the reply function on the eFOI portal at https://pcoomaster08222018120000-dot-efoi-ph.appspot.com/requests/aglzfmVmb2ktcGhyHgsSB0NvbnRlbnQiEURPVHItOTk2MDQzNTkyMDkyDA, for request with ticket number #DOTr-996043592092.

Dear Chermela Tiongson,
Greetings!
Thank you for your request dated Jul 27, 2021 11:21:02 AM under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch.
Your request
You asked for Projected Capacity or Daily Ridership of Each MRT-7 Station.
Response to your request
We were able to determine that this particular information is already available online and therefore cannot be counted as a valid FOI request. You may retrieve your requested information from https://www.facebook.com/106472688264785/posts/178176734427713/. Thus, below is the gist of the post regarding MRT-7 project ridership.
The MRT-7 Project is a 22-km railway project that aims to reduce travel time from North Avenue in Quezon City and San Jose del Monte in Bulacan from the current 2-3 hours to just 35 minutes.
It has 14 stations and can accommodate up to 525,000 to 850,000 passengers daily.
Should you have other concern or clarifications, please do not hesitate to contact me through this portal or at [email protected].
If you are not satisfied with the result of the review, you then have the right to appeal to the Office of the President under Administrative Order No. 22 (s. 2011).
Thank you.
Respectfully,
Kriscia Mallari
FOI Officer
