The Macao SAR Government announced on 13 July the plans for the new public transportation system – the Macao Light Rail Transit System (LRT). According to the plan, the total length of the first phase is 20km, with 23 stations, at a cost of MOP4.2 billion. The entire project is expected to be finished by the end of 2011.
The construction of the LRT system will increase the number of visitors that can be transported around the city, facilitate the Macao integration with the Pearl River Delta, meet the increasing demand for public transportation services and improve the sustainable development of Macao.
