bus terminal

Transit hub building

A bus terminal is a station where bus routes begin, end, or connect—larger and more permanent than a simple bus stop.

Terminals typically have indoor waiting areas, ticket counters, and multiple departure bays: We waited at the Greyhound terminal for three hours.

In cities, the bus terminal often anchors a less prosperous neighborhood.
