A Guide to the Paranaque Integrated Terminal Exchange (PITX)

Updated as of June 30, 2019

Exactly a month ago, the Paranaque Integrated Terminal Exchange (PITX) was officially opened to the public. Dubbed as the country's first landport, PITX is a 75,000 square meter modern terminal that serves as a transfer point for passengers from Metro Manila going to Cavite, Batangas, and Quezon, and vice-versa. With inputs from inter-modal stations in London, Singapore, and Melbourne, the terminal promises to deliver a first world experience with passenger-friendly facilities, multiple connection options, and a myriad of dining and shopping options. 

The Two Juanderers decided to check out PITX and see how things are for Juans who will be visiting the nearby provinces of Cavite, Batangas, Quezon, and the Bicol region. Update: Daily Lucena, Daet, Naga, Legazpi, and Sorsogon trips are now available in PITX.

The Terminal

The terminal is organized into three levels that integrate in-city and provincial vehicle transfers. The ground level houses the ticketing counters, the departure bays for premium point-to-point, city, and provincial buses, and the departure and arrival bays for jeepneys, taxis, and ride-hailing services. The second level holds the arrival bays for buses. The third level contains the departure and arrival bays for UV Express, the private vehicle facilities such as parking spaces, and will eventually be the connecting level to the Asia World Station of the LRT-1 Cavite Extension project.
