The Philippine Department of Transportation (DOTr) has announced plans to restart work on the long-delayed Unified Grand Central Station in Quezon City by January 2026, aiming for completion by 2027. This follows the termination of its contract with the BF Corporation–Foresight Development and Surveying Company (BF-FDSC) Consortium in May 2025 due to repeated delays.
Originally awarded in 2019 with a 2021 deadline, the project has stalled amid contractor-government disputes, including claims of unpaid work by BF-FDSC. Additionally, DOTr is also working to re-award the contract by 2025 to fast-track progress.
The Unified Grand Central Station will serve as a major intermodal hub connecting LRT-1, MRT-3, and MRT-7 at the EDSA-North Avenue intersection. Designed to handle up to 500,000 passengers daily, the 13,700-square-meter facility will also integrate bus, jeepney, and taxi services at a central interchange.
To accelerate infrastructure delivery, the DOTr has established a Flagship Project Management Office (FPMO) under Department Order 2025-002, with Dizon at the helm to oversee project timelines and resource allocation.
