House·20th Congress·Filed Jul 7, 2025

An Act Amending Republic Act No. 7160, Otherwise Known as the "Local Government Code of 1991," by Expanding the Scope of Local Government Units' Power Over Local Public Transportation Systems, and for Other Purposes

In plain language

The bill would rename the law as the LGU Public Transportation Act and require every local government unit to develop safe, affordable, accessible and sustainable mass transit (e.g., rail, monorail, bus rapid transit) using loans, grants, investments or partnerships that do not rely on a sovereign guarantee, while coordinating with national agencies and allowing LGUs to pool resources and charge fees.
