Bus Station
The former 'Hull Coach Station', which was only partially covered over, used to be shared by Hull Corporation Transport (later KHCT), operating within the city boundaries, and East Yorkshire Motor Services (EYMS), linking all parts of the former East Riding. EYMS is still the main bus company for routes throughout East Yorkshire, but the city routes, and a few beyond the city, are now run by Stagecoach in Hull. Other, smaller operators include Alpha Bus and Coach and CT Plus.

Famous quotes containing the words bus and/or station:
“I’d take the bus downtown with my mother, and the big thing was to sit at the counter and get an orange drink and a tuna sandwich on toast. I thought I was living large!... When I was at the Ritz with the publisher a few months ago, I did think, “Oh my God, I’m in the Ritz tearoom.” ... The person who was so happy to sit at the Woolworths counter is now sitting at the Ritz, listening to the harp, and wondering what tea to order.... [ellipsis in source] Am I awake?”
—Connie Porter (b. 1959)
“How soon country people forget. When they fall in love with a city it is forever, and it is like forever. As though there never was a time when they didn’t love it. The minute they arrive at the train station or get off the ferry and glimpse the wide streets and the wasteful lamps lighting them, they know they are born for it. There, in a city, they are not so much new as themselves: their stronger, riskier selves.”
—Toni Morrison (b. 1931)
