Nu Idea No. 5: Train line along C5 all the way to the airport
All the countries that I have been to have train lines connecting to their main airports so that travelers would not have a hard time commuting to the airport. There is no hassle and once they step off the train, it is already a short walk (or sometimes the airport itself already) to the airport.
I suggest a line starting from Cubao (where the two other main lines are connected – MRT and LRT2). This way, commuters can already change trains. After which, the “airport rail” would then pass through Katipunan then along C5. This way, commuters to Pasig, Taguig, Makati, and Paranaque may also use this train line for their everyday commutes to work or school. At a certain point, there will be a grand station wherein the commuters would then choose the train which has a specific route - to airport terminal 1, 2, or 3. This way, passengers would no longer have to take shuttles or buses to reach their respective terminals.
These airport rail service would then stop at the airport terminal assigned to it and the passengers would just get off the train and easily go inside the airport with the usual pre-boarding procedures.
The airport rail services would alleviate traffic and lessen the usage of cars especially when these trains are on time, reliable, clean, and spacious. This also serves a double purpose – commuters can take this train line to access the areas that C5 encompasses and at the same time, travelers can take this train for easier travel to the airport. 3
