Victory Plaza Grand Terminal Project in Caloocan

The Victory Plaza Grand Terminal Project refers to the ongoing development of an integrated transport and lifestyle hub at the Victory Liner Caloocan Terminal site in Caloocan City, Metro Manila, Philippines. This project aims to transform the existing bus terminal into a modern "transport-oriented mall" that combines public transportation facilities with retail, dining, and entertainment spaces. It is spearheaded by Victory Liner, Inc., a major Philippine bus company, and represents their first venture into a mall-style development directly tied to their operations.


Transport Integration: Expansion of the Victory Liner terminal to serve as a grand bus hub with improved facilities for routes to northern Luzon destinations like Baguio, Dagupan, Olongapo, and Tuguegarao. It will include better ticketing, waiting areas, and possibly multi-modal connections (e.g., to LRT and jeepneys).
Lifestyle Components: Retail shops, restaurants, entertainment zones, and event spaces to create a vibrant community hub. The design emphasizes convenience for commuters, shoppers, and locals.
Size and Features: While exact square footage isn't publicly detailed yet, it builds on the existing mall's footprint (previously around 100,000 sqm for Victory Central Mall) with modern additions like parking, air-conditioned spaces, and accessibility features (e.g., wheelchair ramps).
Timeline:
Groundbreaking Ceremony: Held on December 3, 2025, marking the official start of construction.
Expected Completion: No firm date announced, but similar transport-mall projects in the Philippines (e.g., by LTFRB-approved developers) typically take 18–24 months, potentially opening in late 2026 or early 2027.
Developer and Ownership: Victory Liner, Inc., in partnership with local stakeholders (possibly including the City Government of Caloocan for permits). The project aligns with national efforts to modernize public transport under the Department of Transportation (DOTr).
Background and Significance
Victory Plaza has long been a key landmark in Caloocan, evolving from the Victory Central Mall (a mid-2000s development) into a bustling area known for its proximity to the LRT and bus services. The "Grand Terminal" upgrade addresses growing commuter needs in Metro Manila's northern district.
