The Parañaque Integrated Terminal Exchange (PITX) expects to serve 200 million passenger trips by the second quarter of 2025, reinforcing its position as the Philippines’ top intermodal landport.
PITX served over 150 million passenger trips since its opening in 2018. Passenger traffic hit 51.56 million in 2024, representing a 31.7-percent increase from 39.16 million in 2013.
PITX attributed the growth to expanded routes, improved facilities and better interconnectivity, including the recent opening of the LRT-1 PITX station.
“The consistent rise in daily foot traffic since our opening in 2018 highlights the increasing reliance of commuters on PITX as a safe, seamless, and convenient transport hub. We take this as a responsibility to continuously innovate and expand our services to meet growing demand,” said PITX president Jaime Raphael Feliciano.
From 2018 to December 2024, PITX welcomed 178.9 million passengers and logged more than 5.4 million vehicle departures from various modes of transport—including city and provincial buses, modern and traditional jeepneys and transport network vehicle services (TNVS).
The facility also serves as a terminal for over 105 bus destinations—72 provincial and 33 in-city.
PITX introduced six new routes in Luzon and two in the Visayas region in 2024 as part of its efforts to improve nationwide connectivity.
These developments align with Megawide’s broader mobility vision, which includes expanding its transport network and establishing additional terminals and a P2P service for seamless interconnectivity.
The upcoming Cavite Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) System will further reinforce PITX’s role—as a key destination in its P2P routes—in providing an efficient and sustainable transport alternative for commuters in the Cavite-Metro Manila corridor.
The opening of the LRT-1 PITX (Asia World) Station in November 2024 began contributing to PITX’s daily average with an estimated 20,000 passengers arriving and departing from PITX via LRT-1 daily. The integration enhances PITX’s function as a crucial intermodal hub, connecting various transport systems for a seamless commuter experience.
“We remain committed to enhancing PITX’s role as the country’s model landport by improving intermodal transport solutions and boosting overall commuter experience. Our long-term strategy is to solidify PITX as the gold standard for landports in the Philippines by expanding its intermodal capabilities, integrating emerging transport systems like the Cavite BRT, and enhancing nationwide connectivity through strategic infrastructure investments,” Feliciano said.
“By doing so, we are not just improving commuter mobility—we are actively shaping the future of the country’s transportation network,” he said.
