The Winnipeg Bus Terminal is an intercity bus station, located beside the Winnipeg International Airport in Winnipeg, Manitoba. The terminal moved there in August 2009 from its downtown location at Portage Avenue and Balmoral Street, where it had been for 45 years. The new terminal is a single story structure with separate areas for freight and passengers.
The terminal is a hub for Greyhound, with buses originating from and travelling to Vancouver; Edmonton; Toronto; and Fargo, North Dakota.
The previous terminal building was built in 1964 and covers 38,000 square feet (3,500 m2). It shares space with a hotel and apartment complex.
Famous quotes containing the words bus and/or terminal:
“An actor rides in a bus or railroad train; he sees a movement and applies it to a new role. A woman in agony of spirit might turn her head just so; a man in deep humiliation probably would wring his hands in such a way. From straws like these, drawn from completely different sources, the fabric of a character may be built. The whole garment in which the actor hides himself is made of small externals of observation fitted to his conception of a role.”
—Eleanor Robson Belmont (1878–1979)
“All sin tends to be addictive, and the terminal point of addiction is what is called damnation.”
—W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
