Love Bus to return as free service to public, says Marcos

President Ferdinand ''Bongbong'' Marcos Jr. on Monday announced that the iconic Love Bus would make a comeback during his fourth State of the Nation Address (SONA 2025). 

Marcos made the announcement, saying that this service will be free for commuters. In 2023, the said public transport was reintroduced in the City of Makati. 

''Magtatanong ako sa iba sa inyo... Naalala ba ninyo 'yung tinatawag “Love Bus”? Ito 'yung popular na pampublikong bus sa Metro Manila na sinimulan noong 1970s,'' Marcos said.

''Ngayon, hindi lang natin ibabalik ang Love Bus, ito ay gagawin pa nating libre. Pauna pa lamang, pilot testing pa lamang 'yung sa Davao at sa Cebu. Susundan pa ito sa iba pang lugar sa Visayas at Mindanao,'' he added. 

To recall, the Love Bus was introduced in several Metro Manila routes in the 1970s and were the only airconditioned buses during that time. 

It stopped operating after several years as it was considered no longer profitable. — RF, GMA Integrated News
