A total of 40,356 passengers rode for free on the Light Rail Transit Line 2 during the celebration of the 127th Independence Day last June 12, 2025.

“Through this simple initiative, we aim to showcase the true value of our freedom to every Filipino. Free rides are more than just a public service—they symbolize our recognition of our heroes’ sacrifices and serve as an inspiration for our fellow Filipinos who continue to work and fight for our nation,” said LRTA Administrator Hernando Cabrera.

This free ride program was launched in support of the National Historical Commission of the Philippines’ efforts to commemorate and honor the historic occasion of Independence Day.
