The Barrie Bus Terminal, also called the Barrie Transit Terminal or Barrie Bus Depot, is an intercity and municipal
bus station in
Barrie,
Ontario, Canada. It serves as one of five hubs for the local
Barrie Transit system as well as the city's stop on intercity bus routes operated by
GO Transit, and
Ontario Northland. The terminal was built in 1991 to replace the old terminal across the street built in 1956. The building also houses some administration offices for Barrie Transit.

Local bus services will continue to use the building as a hub with new platforms built closer to the street, but all intercity bus services will be relocated to the nearby
Allandale Waterfront GO Station. Construction of this project has yet to begin; the new Allandale hub is expected to open in spring 2023.
