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.

As the street hardly understands;
Sitting along the bed’s edge, where
You curled the papers from your hair,
Or clasped the yellow soles of feet
In the palms of both soiled hands.”

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?”
