Terminal Manager Noli Naval shared that Tacloban City New Bus Terminal building is already 98 percent complete. The 3-level terminal building can accommodate eleven buses on the ground floor and up to 80 jeepneys/ vans on the second and third levels. The terminal is also self-sufficient as it has a water system and a fire hy- drant at each level. A generator set, public toilets, and a PWD ramp are available for the convenience of the riding public. The contractor’s representative wrote to Mayor Alfred Romualdez to signify intent to a partial turnover. This request for a (partial) turnover is to ensure the proper safekeeping of all equipment and devices installed in the building. Terminal Manager Naval also mentioned that phase II development is already in the pipeline. Phase II of the said project is set to modernize the existing waiting area and installation of a skywalk that will connect the terminal to a nearby mall.
