History
Opened23 November 1982

City Interchange, formerly City Bus Station, is located in the central business district of Canberra. Bus stands are located on Alinga Street, East Row, Mort Street and Northbourne Avenue. Construction began in January 1982 with the station opening on 23 November 1982 replacing a temporary stabling facility on the Jolimont Centre site.[1][2] Buses had previously stopped in Northbourne Avenue and London Circuit, but these stops were not separated from general traffic.[3]

Initially only served by ACTION, from January 1999 Deane's Buslines and Transborder Express services commenced using it.[4] The light rail line from Gungahlin terminates at the station on Northbourne Avenue.[5] Having been named City Bus Station since it opened, in April 2019 it was renamed City Interchange.[6]
