Joint Project of the DOTr and BCDA

On July 11, 2022, TESDA III Regional Director Atty. Balmyrson M. Valdez together with TESDA Pampanga Provincial Director Atty. Eric O. Ueda, attended a meeting with the Bases Conversion and Development Authority (BCDA) led by Engr. Rey S. Lim, South Commuter Railway Project (SCRP) Project Manager, Mr. Rolando I. Navarrete, Head Row Community Relation Officer, Ms. Ma. Donna Cordero and Ms. Maureen Avelino, Community Relation Officer of One West Aeropark Clark Global City regarding the possible skills training interventions that will be offered by the agency to support the households that will be affected in the implementation of the Subic – Clark Railway Project.

The Subic-Clark Railway Project is one of the flagship projects under the “Build! Build! Build!” Program, which was approved by the National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA) Board in 2018. The project is expected to deliver high economic returns, to decongest Metro Manila, and to support current industrial activities and the potential demand for freight services along the Subic-Clark Corridor.

The SCRP, a joint project of the Department of Transportation (DOTr) and the Bases Conversion and Development Authority (BCDA), is a component of the PNR Luzon Railway System Development Framework providing initial freight service between the Subic Bay Freeport Zone (SBFZ) and the Clark Freeport Zone (CFZ).
