History
Opened26 March 1988
Location

Queen Street bus station is the primary bus terminus in Brisbane central business district in Queensland, Australia. It is underneath Uptown, Brisbane (formerly the Myer Centre) and Queen Street Mall. It opened on 26 March 1988. At the time it was the largest underground diesel bus station in the world.

The bus station serves 18 routes, operated by Transport for Brisbane.

A limited number of Northern Busway services directly connect King George Square busway station with Queen Street bus station. Most bypass Queen Street bus station and stop at the Cultural Centre busway station on the southern side of the Brisbane River, and vice versa. However, King George Square busway station and Queen Street bus station are only a short walking distance apart.

The southern portal connects the bus station to Victoria Bridge and the Cultural Centre busway station. The former western portal was converted into a tunnel and connects the bus station to King George Square busway station.[1][2]

The bus station was originally divided into several platforms named after Australian native animals. In June 2015, the platforms were renamed with letters and numbers.[3]
