    One of the highlights of One Ayala is Makati’s first trade hall located on the fifth level with a total of 2,700 square meters. This new space provides entrepreneurs and businesses a platform to showcase their products and services. With four trade halls available, One Ayala aims to support the growth of local businesses and foster a thriving community.

    One Ayala: An intermodal transport hub for seamless travel

    PUV Terminal 4

    At the heart of One Ayala is the One Ayala Terminal, conveniently accessible to those coming from the Makati Central Business District, with its entrance right along Ayala Avenue. Commuters are welcomed by an air-conditioned lobby which leads to a naturally-ventilated transport hub that integrates various modes of mass transportation in a single venue. The hub contains a bus terminal where commuters can ride the P2P (point-to-point) bus, UBE Express bus to NAIA Terminals 1-4, city buses like the EDSA Carousel, as well as buses going to nearby Sta. Rosa, Alabang, and the like. There is also a PUV terminal which was transferred from Park Square, where commuters can ride PUJs and UV Express. The second level also connects to the MRT Ayala Station, McKinley Foot Bridge and soon to Glorietta 5. The EDSA Busway Ayala stop is one of the most utilized stops, and the transfer from its former location at the curbside of EDSA has greatly benefitted thousands of commuters while providing commuters with comfort, convenience, and safety.

    Bus Terminal 2

    “One Ayala is an iconic addition to the Makati skyline that serves a unique purpose,” says Christopher Maglanoc, President of Ayala Malls. “Being an inclusive city, we would like to ensure that we provide the proper transport infrastructure to serve all members of our community. We believe that by providing accessibility, convenience, and a vibrant hub for retail and dining all in one place, we can make a positive impact on people’s lives.”

    Bus Terminal 1 1

    With the mall set to fully open this year, One Ayala is definitely a game-changer in the way people live, work, and play in Makati CBD and beyond. With its commitment to convenience, accessibility, and diverse range of experiences, One Ayala is a testament to Ayala Malls’ dedication to providing a seamless and enjoyable experience for its customers.
