Resource Title D-LINK: redefining progress through an eco-transit hub in Davao City
Date Issued January 2024
Abstract During these times of rapid urban and technological growth, cities struggle to find the balance between modernization and environmental stewardship. Davao City, a first class highly urbanized city, and the third largest city in the Philippines, which serves as the center of trade and commerce in Mindanao, currently experiences this problem. To address the need for an efficient public transportation system, the city plans to upgrade its mass transport system through the High Priority Bus System (HPBS) under the Davao Public Transport Modernization Project. This comprehensive design project presents a design proposal for HPBS’ bus terminal in Davao City that seeks to redefine the meaning of progress that reflects the symbiotic relationship between modernization through an efficient transport system and responsible stewardship of nature and the environment. The proposed project - Davao Link or D-LINK, an eco-transit hub located in Calinan, Davao City, shall serve as a centralized transport link for various modes of transportation. The project makes use of strategic methods and design solutions to build a space to link the natural environment and surrounding agricultural areas with a state-of-the-art interchange transportation terminal.
