Wolverhampton Bus Station (also known as Pipers Row Bus Station) is a bus interchange in the city centre of Wolverhampton, in the West Midlands region of England.
It is managed by Network West Midlands. Local bus services operated by various companies serve the bus station which has 19 departure stands and 1 unloading stand. The bus station is located halfway between Wolverhampton, St George's Midland Metro tram terminus and Wolverhampton railway station; both are just a short walk away. It also features glass enclosed waiting areas and electronic doors, allowing passengers out of designated pedestrian areas, only when buses are on stand. Uniquely, the designs for the station have meant that there is no need for buses and pedestrians paths to cross, due to the 'W' shape of the station.

“There was an old man from Darjeeling
Who got on a bus bound for Ealing.

“Please don’t spit on the floor,”
So he carefully spat on the ceiling.”
