bus shelter

Roadside waiting booth

A bus shelter is a roofed structure at a bus stop, providing passengers with protection from rain, wind, and sun while they wait.

Most are three-sided with a bench and often include posted schedules or advertising panels.

We ducked into the bus shelter when it started to pour.
