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:
“We have defined a story as a narrative of events arranged in their time-sequence. A plot is also a narrative of events, the emphasis falling on causality. “The king died and then the queen died” is a story. “The king died, and then the queen died of grief” is a plot. The time sequence is preserved, but the sense of causality overshadows it.”
—E.M. (Edward Morgan)
“A considerable percentage of the people we meet on the street are people who are empty inside, that is, they are actually already dead. It is fortunate for us that we do not see and do not know it. If we knew what a number of people are actually dead and what a number of these dead people govern our lives, we should go mad with horror.”
—George Gurdjieff (c. 1877–1949)
“In the dime stores and bus stations,
People talk of situations,
Read books, repeat quotations,
Draw conclusions on the wall.”
—Bob Dylan [Robert Allen Zimmerman] (b. 1941)
“All sin tends to be addictive, and the terminal point of addiction is what is called damnation.”
—W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
