A P2-billion investment was allotted for the development and construction of an intermodal transportation terminal inside the Clark Freeport Zone (CFZ), which is expected to generate around 1,000 jobs during its construction, in partnership with the Clark Development Corporation (CDC) and SM Prime Holdings, Inc. The project will provide a sufficient number of departure bays for various modes of transportation such as public utility buses, jeepneys, bus rapid transport, shuttle services and taxis among others. “All public transportation operating within the zone will be given priority,” CDC president Manuel Gaerlan said in a statement. Under the lease agreement, Premiere Clark Complex, Inc. (PCCI) will develop the said terminal on a 23,955 square meters area located at the Southern Gateway District inside CFZ. Gaerlan said the terminal will be a four-story building that includes ancillary facilities such as a waiting area for passengers, restrooms and other services required for an intermodal transportation system. The PCCI announced an additional P1.2 billion was allocated for the creation of an office tower near the terminal, which is expected to generate a total of 800 jobs and 1,000 direct employment during its operations.
