Quirino Highway station is an under-constructionMetro Manila Subway station located inQuirino Highway, Barangay Talipapa,Novaliches,Quezon City,Philippines.[1][2][3] It is the second station for trains headed northbound towardsEast Valenzuela and the fourteenth station for trains headed southbound toNAIA Terminal 3.
Serving theNovaliches area, some of the station's closest landmarks include theNLEX Harbor Link, Pacific Global Medical Center, and a Wilcon Depot.
In February 2019, the Department of Transportation signed a deal with the joint venture of Shimizu Corporation, Fujita Corporation, Takenaka Civil Engineering Co., Ltd., and EEI Corporation for the design and build contract for the first three stations of theMetro Manila Subway, which includes the Quirino Highway station.[2] The station was initially planned as the northern terminus of the line untilEast Valenzuela station was added to the proposal in June 2020.[4] TheDepartment of Transportation (DOTr) then began clearing a site for the partial operability section of the Metro Manila Subway to initiate its construction.[5] Construction of the station was delayed by theCOVID-19 pandemic, but was continued in late 2021.[6][7]
Jeepneys, taxis, and buses will be available around the station. It will also have access to buses going northbound and southbound alongMindanao Avenue because of a dedicated bus station outside the station.[citation needed] There are also tricycles near the area, especially withinQuirino Highway and Marigold Street.
