Transport Interchange
The transport interchange is located beneath the 2006 extension to the shopping centre, adjacent to the railway station. All bus services serving Doncaster town centre operate to/from or via the interchange.
The interchange has three concourses A,B and C with 30 stands split between them.
On top of this, there is a direct link to the Doncaster railway station from the Interchange, connecting Bus, Coach & Train in one place. From Stop A1, there are many direct buses to/from the new Robin Hood Airport, approx. 8 miles (13 km) from Doncaster Town Centre (with all services taking approximately 25 minutes).
There is also a multi storey car park above the shopping centre, such that the shopping levels are between the bus station and the car park. The first 3/4 levels of parking are short stay, maintained by the centre, and the top 2 are long stay, for train users, and are maintained by East Coast Trains. This long stay car park replaced the strip car park that was behind Gresley House alongside the rail line.

Famous quotes containing the words transport and/or interchange:
“One may disavow and disclaim vices that surprise us, and whereto our passions transport us; but those which by long habits are rooted in a strong and ... powerful will are not subject to contradiction. Repentance is but a denying of our will, and an opposition of our fantasies.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
“What men have called friendship is only a social arrangement, a mutual adjustment of interests, an interchange of services given and received; it is, in sum, simply a business from which those involved propose to derive a steady profit for their own self-love.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
