Queen Street Bus Station is the Brisbane CBD's primary bus terminus. It is underneath The Myer Centre and Queen Street Mall. It is in Zone 1 of the TransLink integrated public transport system.

Passengers wait for their buses behind automatic doors in an air-conditioned environment with advanced information displays.
