Here’s a rundown of all the planned stations of the Makati Subway and their approximate locations

The Makati Subway Project was envisioned as the Philippines’ first subway system, with a target completion year of 2025.

But the project hit a major roadblock after the Supreme Court ruled that several barangays previously under Makati City are now officially part of Taguig City, affecting key areas where subway stations were supposed to rise.

Philippine Infradev Holdings Incorporated, Makati’s private partner in the project, has since said the subway is “no longer economically and operationally feasible” due to the High Court’s ruling.

Even before that decision, however, construction had already been delayed. Former Makati mayor Abby Binay attributed the setback to the COVID-19 pandemic, during a press conference on Thursday, July 11.

So where exactly were the subway stations supposed to be built?

Here’s a rundown of all the planned stations and their approximate locations:

The stations in the University of Makati, Buting, and Comembo are located in the Enlisted Men’s Barrios (EMBO), barangays that were formerly part of Makati but are now under the jurisdiction of Taguig City.

A station in Rockwell Center, along J.P. Rizal Avenue, between Estrella and Camia Street, was originally part of the proposal, but it was later dropped from the plan.
