bus stop

Scheduled boarding point

A bus stop is a designated place where buses pick up and drop off passengers.

It may be marked by a sign, a shelter, or simply a known location along a route: I'll meet you at the bus stop on Fifth Street.

The term also refers to the act of waiting there: a quick bus stop before heading downtown.
