History
Construction began in January 1982 with the station opening on 23 November 1982 replacing a temporary stabling facility on the Jolimont Centre site.[2][3] Buses had previously stopped in Northbourne Avenue and London Circuit, but these stops were not separated from general traffic.[4]
Initially only served by ACTION, from January 1999 Deane's Buslines (now CDC Canberra) and Transborder Express began providing services.[5] Having been named City Bus Station since it opened, in April 2019 it was renamed City Interchange [6] coinciding with the opening of stage 1 of Canberra's light rail network.
