Gosport bus station is a bus station in Gosport, England.

History

The original Gosport bus station was opened in 1972 with 10 stands.[1][2] There have been plans to redevelop the bus station since 2012.[3] Current proposals involve building a new bus station north of the current station, on the site of a taxi rank.[4] In 2021, the site of the current bus station was put up for sale.[5]

In June 2023 work commenced on a new bus station with six stands with the original station to be demolished as part of the Gosport Waterfront redevelopment.[2][6][7]
