It will also serve as the eastern terminus of the proposedMRT Line 8 (MRT-8) system. The station itself is located within the campus of theUniversity of the Philippines Diliman and is named after University Avenue, the main road leading towards the university. The MRT-7 system has a proposed spur line to connect itself to theLRT Line 2 (LRT-2) system atKatipunan station, passing through the University of the Philippines Diliman andKatipunan Avenue, while the MRT-8 system will terminate at this station with a spur line towards its depot further inside UP Diliman. Construction started on August 15, 2017[1] and was expected to end around April 2018.[2]
When completed, the station will serve the following establishments:University of the Philippines Diliman,U.P.–Ayala Land TechnoHub,Philippine Coconut Authority (PhilCoa), and theCommission on Human Rights Complex.
The station, unlike the separate Quezon Memorial stations of MRT-7 and MRT-8, will be situated at the same complex with the MRT-8 building platforms side-by-side the MRT-7 platforms thereby creating a common station.
