Good Morning DOTR e-FOI,
Below are the answers to the clarifications you request.
I am a research assistant doing a consultancy project under the National Economic Development Authority. Part of the project is the development of a business case for a bus terminal in Mindanao, among the other recommendations.
I am requesting for the guidelines for bus and transport terminals / garages so that we can incorporate it to the conceptual design of the bus terminals and ensure that it is up to DOTR standards. The request for a feasibility study on PITX would also give us an idea on how to conduct our own business case properly since PITX was approved and operational government project. Moreover, it is the "best in class" among transport terminal and can serve as an example for future terminal developments.
Thank you and good day.
Kind Regards.
