  • Technological Evolution of Manila Light Rail Transit System
    International Journal of Advanced Science and Technology Vol.89 (2016), pp.9-16 http://dx.doi.org/10.14257/ijast.2016.89.02 Technological Evolution of Manila Light Rail Transit System Tomas U. Ganiron Jr IAENG, Hongkong College of Architecture, Qassim University, Buraidah City [email protected] Abstract This study focuses on the different elements of Manila Light Rail Transit System Line 1 in Metro Manila with the aim of characterizing its technological evolution and putting in context its impact in terms of what it is best designed for and what it can deliver. The study provides the concept of understanding the recent operation and developmental resolutions that the management of LRTA line 1 is providing as a preparation to uplift the socio-economic conditions of the commuters. Through the application of technology and scientific principles by means of transportation engineering for managing the facilities of the LRTA line 1 system, the system can provide safer, more rapid, more convenient, economic and environmental friendly way of transportation for the increasing demand of commuters. However, LRT 1 is best designed to substitute conventional railway services on routes where much higher capacity is required and to reduce travel time, further improving the railway service, also against other modes, therefore leading to mode substitution. Keywords: Highway engineering, railway transit, road engineering, transportation engineering 1. Introduction The traffic jams in Manila are staggering. Only a few traffic lights often disregarded separate the combatants. Every one force his way across the junctions, thus blocking everyone else and so the government decided to find a solution.

  • Indonesia, Malaysia, Brunei, Philippines
    Indonesia, Malaysia, Brunei, Philippines Just finished touring Indonesia, Brunei, Malaysia and the Philippines which seems a logical breakpoint for a trip report before we get to China and the mainland. Regarding Indonesia, we never before had a real appreciation for how big the country actually is in terms of being an archipelago (over 13,400 islands with almost 6,000 occupied) and population (over 260 million ranking fourth in the world.) Indonesia stretches some 3,100 miles east to west and just over 1,000 miles north to south. Nearly half the population lives on the island of Java which has the second densest population per square mile in the world (next to Singapore). Motor bikes and cycles outnumber automobiles by far. Brunei, on the other hand, is a tiny sovereign state (the size of Rhode Island) on the Indonesian island of Borneo with a population of about 420,000. It is an extraordinarily rich country based on extensive oil and natural gas reserves. Malaysia is unique in that it is separated by the South China Sea into two regions; Peninsular Malaysia on the mainland adjacent to Thailand, Singapore, Vietnam and Indonesia and East Malaysia which is adjacent to Brunei and Indonesia. The population is over 30 million. It is a vibrant, growing country with an envious economy based on natural resources and a growing tourist trade. It has a very advanced healthcare system managed by the government. Lastly, the Philippines is comprised of over 7,600 islands and has a population of just over 100 million (ranking twelfth in the world.) The United States has a long history with the Philippines and large numbers of the population have immigrated to America.
