Jamaica Center Bus Terminal

edit

The subway complex includes the Jamaica Center Bus Terminal. Though little more than a series of bus stops at or along Jamaica Avenue, and on Archer Avenue (primarily on the eastbound side), it still serves as a major transit hub within Jamaica.[1] The former 160th Street Jamaica Elevated station on Jamaica Avenue that it replaced, was also a major hub for trolley service when it was originally built. Several of the trolley lines were the predecessors to current bus service.[2][3]

Jamaica Center station itself has a designated bus terminal area built on the south side of Archer Avenue along the LIRR trestle, with bus stop areas lettered A through H. The western portion of the terminal (bays F through H and the bus layover area) is also known as the "Teardrop Canopy".[4]
