Central Terminal station

Central Terminal, formerly and widely known as Arroceros station, is an elevated Light Rail Transit (LRT) station located on the LRT Line 1 (LRT-1) system in Ermita, Manila. A popular name for the station is Arroceros due to its proximity to the Arroceros Forest Park; Arroceros is also the former name of Antonio Villegas Street, where the station is located. Central Terminal is the last station of LRT-1 south of the Pasig River and serves as the fourteenth station for trains headed to Fernando Poe Jr. and the twelfth station for trains headed to Dr. Santos. The station was named as such due to its initial central location in the line, having been the tenth station for trains headed to both Monumento and Baclaran, the line's former termini prior to the addition of the North and Cavite Extensions. Opened on December 1, 1984, as part of the line's initial section known as Taft Line (after Taft Avenue, where most of the section's stations are located), it was the line's initial northern terminus, known as Arroceros, until Carriedo was opened on April 14, 1985. Located in Manila's University Belt, the station is near educational institutions such as the Colegio de San Juan de Letran, the Philippine Normal University, the city-owned Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Maynila, the Mapúa University, and the Lyceum of the Philippines University. All these institutions, except the Philippine Norma
