The Bicutan AGT is an automated guideway transit (AGT) system under development as of 2020 within the City of Taguig in the Philippines. It will serve as test track for the second mass transit system to be built and developed in the country by local engineers.[2]

Despite some media reports calling it a monorail, the system uses two parallel concrete beams to form a track.
