The inaugural LRT train from the new Barra Station will set off to Taipa at 6:30 a.m. on Dec. 8. In response to the extension of the LRT route, a new fare scheme has also been released by the government.
Each sea crossing section will be counted as two stations when calculating the number of stations, namely, the section between Barra and Ocean Station.
Under the new fare scheme, each single journey ticket will be priced between MOP6 and MOP12, depending on the number of stations traveled. Discounts will apply to select passenger categories.
Meanwhile, the construction of the section north of the LRT East Line that will connect Pac On in Taipa to Border Gate, passing through the Zone A of the new landfills, is underway.
The government initially said that it hopes the construction can start as early as the second half of this year.
The government expects the East Line of the LRT will be completed and ready to begin operating in 2028. AL
