Bulacan in recent years has been getting a fair share of developments particularly at its largest city, San Jose del Monte spear headed by the power couple Cong. Florida Robes and Mayor Arthur Robes.

Job and business opportunities are also on the rise in San Jose del Monte to further sweeten the quality of living in this flourishing Bulacan city. ABS-CBN was expected to complete the construction of its massive sound stages. Measuring 1,500 square meters each, these facilities will provide sets not only for TV shows but also for film productions that conceivably can generate local employment.

As an added boost to the local economy, the Department of Trade and Industry set up a Negosyo Center in SJDM. This center will provide additional economic stimulus to the city, especially for micro and SMEs.

The most anticipated game-changer though is a mass transport system now in the pipeline; this should put San Jose del Monte among the most desirable Metro Manila suburban places to live in. Now rising is the Manila Metro Rail Transit System Line 7 which will stretch a total of 22.8 kilometers when completed.

The MRT-7 line is set on a northeast route from North Avenue in Quezon City up to San Jose del Monte. This P62.7 billion mass transit project is expected to be finished in five years; its station in SJDM is proposed as an inter-modal terminal that should add to the perks of living in this city.

With all of these developments boosting San Jose Del Monte, Bulacan, Cong. Rida Robes shared that they will not stop until they can give the best for every Bulacaños.
