History

The station was built in the mid-1990s as a provisional one in the former site of a football field, in response to the high traffic congestion caused by construction works and to concentrate in one point the many private bus stations scattered throughout the city. As years passed, the number of passengers and bus companies grew, and the location of Termibus proved to be a very strategic one, so the station was greatly improved. The initial plan was always to build the bus terminal in the Bilbao-Abando station, the main railway station of the city. Finally, it was decided to build a new underground station in the original location, being reopened on November 27, 2019. Its new official name became Bilbao Intermodal.
