Structure and Location
Dunbar Loop is located at and near the intersection of Dunbar Street and 41st Avenue in the Dunbar-Southlands neighbourhood of Vancouver. Part of the exchange is on-street, while the rest is located at the southwest corner of the intersection, separated from regular traffic.
Because of its proximity to the University of British Columbia (UBC) and the University Endowment Lands, it is heavily used by students. All routes going westbound from Dunbar Loop terminate at UBC at some point, during regular weekday hours.
In addition to being able to handle trolleys and regular diesel buses, the on-street bays at Dunbar Loop can handle articulated buses as well; the #43 and #480 routes use them on a frequent basis, especially during UBC's winter session.

Famous quotes containing the words structure and and/or structure:
“Each structure and institution here was so primitive that you could at once refer it to its source; but our buildings commonly suggest neither their origin nor their purpose.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“When a house is tottering to its fall,
The strain lies heaviest on the weakest part,
One tiny crack throughout the structure spreads,
And its own weight soon brings it toppling down.”
—Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)
