TRANSPORTATION Secretary Arthur Tugade said he is hoping that President Rodrigo Duterte and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe will sign the agreement for the construction of the Mega Manila Subway project in November this year.

This “most ambitious project” will allow for a “consistent travel time” of 31 minutes between Quezon City and Taguig, the Department of Transportation (DoTr) chief said during the “Dutertenomics” Forum held at the Conrad Hotel on Tuesday.
