LRT to resume services Apr. 3
After six months of service suspension due to the replacement of its high-voltage cable network, the Light Rapid Transit (LRT) will return to service on April 3. The service will operate from 6:30 a.m. to 11:15 p.m. every day. Carriages will run at 10 to 15 minute intervals. The LRT system currently operates an 11-station trackless railway between Ocean Garden and the Taipa Ferry Terminal. The entire journey normally takes 20 minutes. Single-journey fares range between MOP6 to MOP10, depending on the length of the journey. Payment using the LRT stored-value card will come with a discount of at least 50%.
