Gil Puyat Avenue), Ayala Avenue and Magallanes Avenue in Makati City; and Taft Avenue in Pasay City.

Three main types of stations were adopted, namely:

> At-grade

> Elevated

> Depressed

Stations are averagely spaced, 1,300 meters apart, with the closest spacing, about 730 meters, and the farthest, 2,210 meters, and they all provide basic disabled-friendly and commuter-responsive facilities such as platforms, view decks, elevators, escalators, public pay phones, public pedestrian crossings and other amenities.

Each station's concourse area is divided into the paid and unpaid sections. The paid section is a secured area accessible only to MRT passengers who have bought and inserted a fare ticket in any of the entry gates. The unpaid section is the public section where ticket vending machines, rail travel and other local transportation information boards, advertising panels and pedestal are located.

Safety has been stressed in all stations, which are equipped with modern communication systems, closed- circuit televisions for security monitoring, public address system and fire stand pipes, hoses and wash down bibs.
