</noinclude>

The Makati Intra-city Subway (MkTr) was a planned underground rapid transit line to be located in Makati, Metro Manila, that will link establishments across the city's business district. The construction of it was planned through a public-private partnership program between the Makati City Government and a private consortium headed by Philippine Infradev Holdings. Proponents of the subway are expected to begin construction by December 2018, and Makati Mayor Abigail Binay projects completion by 2025.[4] The subway will cost $1.8 billion (or 90 billion)[1] and is expected to accommodate 500,000 passengers daily.[5][6] It will also have seven stations, with connections to the existing MRT Line 3 and Pasig River Ferry Service.[7]

Construction of this project was put on hold after the transfer of jurisdiction of the ten EMBO barangays from Makati to Taguig was finalized in 2023. This is because its planned depot and some stations were intended to be located in the formerly disputed area, according to the original proposed alignment, thus requiring a reworking.[8][9]
