Detailed narrative description of project In April 2011, the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) made public its proposed Mega Manila North and South Provincial Integrated Bus Axis System (PIBUS) Project, which involves the construction of integrated bus terminals for northern and southern provincial buses. For northern Luzon-bound buses, MMDA identified the three potential sites, namely: University of the Philippines property along Commonwealth Avenue, a private property along NLEX and close to the Balintawak toll gate, and another private property along Quirino Highway in Quezon City. For the Southern Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao-bound buses, the identified possible sites were: Philippine Reclamation Authority property along Macapagal Avenue in Pasay City and a private property near Coastal Road, Parañaque City. MMDA further proposed that these integrated bus terminals be provided a wide array of passenger facilities for convenience and comfort, which include: food shops, convenience stores, service clinic, comfortable waiting lounge, wireless connectivity, hotel accommodation for transient passengers, play area for children and ample space for temporary parking and drop-off/pick-up of passengers using other road transport modes. Ideally, the terminals should be located close to modal interchange points such as LRT/MRT stations and accessible through main roads or expressways. As an improvement to the prevailing manual ticketing procedure, MMDA proposed the establishment of a centralized ticketing system at the terminals with future out-of-station points of sales such as in convenience stores, department stores and malls..

Detailed narrative description of project The goal of the study is to identify ways to improve the public transport orientation of the MCBD, including Ayala Center Glorietta and Greenbelt, and linkages to MRT 3 and terminals at Building 6 and Shell Forbes. Public transport operations in Ayala Center Glorietta are currently concentrated at EDSA Carpark and Park Square 1 which are public parking garages that have been retrofitted to accommodate jeepneys and shuttle vans (AUVs/FXs). Transport operations serving Makati Central Business District (MCBD) are also found in the Building 6 and Shell Forbes area at McKinley Road. Within the MCBD, there are several on- and off-street public transport stops and terminals, both formal (organized by Ayala Property Management Corp) and informal (habitually used by public transport operators). A transport station is also envisioned at the planned future development at the Ayala Ave North location (Amorsolo carpark area). Given the stature of MCBD as the premiere business district of the Philippines, it is important to be able to provide an efficient transit system that can meet the different transport demands of the users. At the same time, from the developer’s perspective, the transit system would also play a role in helping increase land valuation in the area, and maintaining or even increasing potential income. The key public transport issues then to address in this study include, but not limited to: locations and carrying capacities of existing and future public transport stops and terminals, management measures to instil orderly flows of passengers and public transport vehicles, and requirements for physical upgrades and operational improvements.

Detailed narrative description of project In 2006, the master plan for the 1,676-hectare joint venture project, known as Nuvali, which is a partnership between Ayala Land Inc. (ALI) and the Yulo Family heirs, was prepared. The master plan identified various land uses per area, circulation patterns, and the necessary infrastructure to spur development. Nuvali is proposed to be the new 21st century satellite city south of Manila. It is to be developed as a self-contained and integrated township that will bring together inter-related businesses, residential and leisure communities in a campus-like, low-density environment. The area will feature a commercial employment core driven by emerging knowledge industries such as information technology, information technology (IT)-enabled services, business process outsourcing (BPO) firms, and health care facilities. In late September 2007, ALI officially launched the 300-hectare Nuvali Phase 1 Development featuring 174 hectares of mix-class residential communities, 30-hectare IT campus (Technopod), at least eight hectares of lake and park, and commercial lots for industry locators.

Detailed narrative description of services provided The study was conducted in four (4) basic stages. These are described below: ▪ Data review and collection ▪ Transport/Traffic Analysis ▪ Formulation of short, medium and long-term plans for the study area to address the following concerns: a) vehicular traffic movements, including truck flows to/from industrial parks b) urban community designs and “green” developments c) environment and ecological balance d) Yulo township vision ▪ Drawing up of conclusions and recommendations
