History

In August 2014, five companies bought bid documents for a public-private partnership project of proposed integrated transport terminal in FTI. The five companies were given until October 2014 to submit their bids to finance, build, operate, and maintain the proposed terminal.[3] It was then announced in January 2016 that Ayala Land won the project in November 2015.[1]

Construction

Initially, the construction was supposed to begin on September 2016,[1] but the groundbreaking ceremony was held in January 2018. The terminal is expected to be operational by 2020.[2] The estimated cost of the project stands at P5.20 billion.
