bus depot

Coach parking facility

A bus depot is a station where buses begin and end their routes, passengers board and disembark, and vehicles are stored and maintained between runs.

Larger than a simple bus stop, a depot typically has indoor waiting areas, ticket counters, and multiple bays for boarding: We waited at the bus depot for the overnight coach to Chicago.
