public transportation hub

Buses and trains

A public transportation hub is a central location where multiple transit routes or modes converge, allowing passengers to transfer between buses, trains, subways, or other services.

Major cities build hubs at strategic points to streamline commuter flow: The new public transportation hub connects the light rail to six bus lines.

Airports and train stations often function as regional hubs.
