Queen Street Bus Terminal (Chinese: 奎因街巴士终站), also known as the Ban San Bus Terminal, is a bus terminal in Singapore. It is an aging terminal located in a relatively inconvenient location due to changes in transport patterns around it. However, it has remained in its current location as it has become a centralised location for commuters travelling to Johor Bahru, Malaysia by public bus over time. This is largely in part due to SBS Transit Service 170, which operates out of the terminal (as it was the only public bus service, besides tour coaches, to operate into Malaysia for a period in the past). Today, beside it, there is also a bus terminal for the Singapore-Johore Express which goes across the Johor-Singapore Causeway to Johor Bahru.

Famous quotes containing the words queen, street, bus and/or terminal:
“In the early forties and fifties almost everybody “had about enough to live on,” and young ladies dressed well on a hundred dollars a year. The daughters of the richest man in Boston were dressed with scrupulous plainness, and the wife and mother owned one brocade, which did service for several years. Display was considered vulgar. Now, alas! only Queen Victoria dares to go shabby.”
—M. E. W. Sherwood (1826–1903)
“He has given me six hundred street signs.
The time I was dancing he built a museum.
He built ten blocks when I moved on the bed.
He constructed an overpass when I left.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
“There was an old man from Darjeeling
Who got on a bus bound for Ealing.
It said at the door,
“Please don’t spit on the floor,”
So he carefully spat on the ceiling.”
—Anonymous.
“All sin tends to be addictive, and the terminal point of addiction is what is called damnation.”
—W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
