Sususpindihin muna ng Light Rail Manila Corp. (LRMC) ang operasyon ng kanilang Light Rail Transit Line 1 (LRT-1) para sa reintegration effort ng kanilang istasyon na dati nang isinara dahil sa pagpapatayo ng Common Station.
Sa panahon ng pagsasara nito, magsasagawa naman ang kumpanya ngreadiness tests, trial runs, at exercises upang masubukan ang katatagan ng Roosevelt area sa tulong ng brand-new Alstom signaling system.
“We advise our passengers to plan their trips ahead. We assure the public that the upcoming weekend closure with temporary inconvenience will result in long-term benefits for our commuters. In coordination with our private and government partners, it will be all hands on deck to ensure a safe and successful resumption of commercial operations for the full line," pahayag ni LRMC chief operating officer Rolando Paulino III.
Sakaling naging positibo ang isasagawang operational exercises, inaasahang mailunsadna ang commercial operations nito mulaLRT-1 Baclaran Station hanggangLRT-1 Roosevelt Station sa Disyembre 5.
