Bicutan station is a station on the South Main Line ("Southrail") of the Philippine National Railways. Like all PNR stations, this station is at grade. The station is located on General Santos Avenue in Parañaque, near its border with Taguig and beside the ramp for northbound vehicles entering the South Luzon Expressway.

The station is the fourteenth station southbound from Tutuban and is the only PNR station in Parañaque.

Nearby landmarks

The station is near major landmarks such as the Bicutan Public Market, the headquarters of the Department of Science and Technology, offices of the Philippine National Construction Corporation (PNCC) and SM City Bicutan. Further away from the station are the Polytechnic University of the Philippines-Taguig, Taguig City University, Camp Bagong Diwa, and the Upper Bicutan National High School.

Bicutan station is accessible by jeepneys plying the Lower Bicutan and East Service Road routes, as well as buses plying the South Luzon Expressway route which stops in Bicutan. A bus stop is located just outside the station for buses entering the South Luzon Expressway. A pedestrian footbridge also connects to two terminals for tricycles, each going for nearby barangays of Parañaque to the west and Taguig to the east.

It will also be one of the two future interchange stations with the Metro Manila Subway along with FTI station by 2025.[1]
