How to get to the new NBI Clearance Center Alabang

if you're coming from the Las Pinas part of the south, take the jeepneys with the Starmall or Metropolis signs in front. These jeeps will terminate their route at your place of destination: Starmall Alabang.



Upon reaching Alabang, there are 2 things that can happen depending on what time you get there and depending on kuya drivers mood.

Time Factor: Starmall seems to have closed off certain walkways when it opens. I noticed that almost 90% of the time i get there by 10:00am onwards, the jeepneys take the ramp route up. Anytime earlier, they seem to make the ground floor drop-offs.

Driver Factor: this accounts for the other 10% of the time after 10:00am that the driver decides not to take the ramp up but instead do a drop off at either of the 2 ground floor entrances to the mall. Alight at the first entrance and walk to the basement. You should see a terminal of several jeepney routes. Walk towards the end and you should see a staircase leading up to the 2nd floor.

the jeep can take the spiral ramp up the parking lot onto the 2nd floor. 

Get off at the part facing Laguna de bay and look for a staircase leading up to the third level. If by chance your jeep doesnt take the ramp up, then get off near entrance of the mall and walk towards the parking area. There should be a staircase leading up to the upper floors. 



Taking the South Station jeep would only bring you halfway to Starmall. There'd  still be a considerable amount of walking youd need to do to get to Starmall. Its not the death march, but more than a little exercise. 

Getting off at the South Station, you have several options on getting to Starmall

Option 1: walk through South Station and up the stairs towards the overpass heading to Festival Mall. You should see the Muntinlupa Police and Fire Department as well as Crimson Hotel. Descend the stairs and walk your way towards Starmall Alabang which should be in sight.

There are 3 overpasses you will come across. The fastest way would be to take the 2nd or 3rd overpass which connects directly to Starmall.

Option 2. From South Station take the overpass to get to Festival Mall. Hail a jeep with a Starmall or Metropolis sign. Should the jeep go up the ramp and up to the 2nd floor of the Parking Lot, get off at the staircase facing Laguna De Bay. Take the stairs to the 3rd level and voila! NBI Alabang!
