Parañaque Integrated Terminal Exchange


The Parañaque Integrated Terminal Exchange, formerly called Southwest Integrated Transport System, is a public transport terminal in Parañaque, Metro Manila, Philippines. PITx is built and operated by Megawide Construction Corporation and the Department of Transportation under the Philippine government's Public-Private Partnership program.
It replaced the older Southwest Integrated Transport Terminal initially located at the derelict Uniwide Coastal Mall, which was transferred to HK Plaza in Bay City, Pasay as the Southwest Interim Provincial Terminal.
Opened on November 5, 2018, PITx serves as a hub for buses, jeepneys,and other public utility vehicles headed for areas south of Metro Manila, including the provinces of Cavite and Batangas, and vice versa. It is projected to accommodate around 200,000 passengers. The terminal is also planned to connect with the Asia World station of the proposed Line 1 Cavite extension.
