Ceres Liner Bus Terminal

Tagbak, Iloilo City

As big as a medium sized airport terminal!


I've not come across a modern bus terminal as big as this one in South East Asia. A busy bus
station with buses coming in and out every 5 minutes. A very big parking area for buses. Probably
more than a few hundred buses in the parking area.

TERMINAL BERSEPADU SELATAN (TBS)


address: Terminal Bersepadu Selatan - Bandar Tasik Selatan, Jalan Terminal Selatan, 57100 Kuala Lumpur - Tel :
+603 9057 5804 or +603 9057 5802 - Email : customercare@tbsbts.com.my

Modern airport-like bus terminal in Bandar Tasik Selatan in southern Kuala


Lumpur. Main Terminal for all major bus connections from and to Kuala
Lumpur
TBS is located about 10km south of the city centre so you need at least 30min travel time to get
there with public transport. To make sure you get there on time for your bus, we recommand to
leave there abou 1h before departure.

TBS is located right next to Bandar Tasik Selatan train station which serves LRT, KTM and ERL
(KLIA Transit) trains.
LRT: take Ampang line towards Sri Petaling, get off at Bandar Tasik Selation
KTM: take Seremban line, get off at Bandar Tasik Selation
ERL: take KLIA transit, get off at Bandar Tasik Selation
from the train station there is a bridge that directly connects to the bus terminal

The official name of this bus terminal is "Terminal Bersepadu Selatan - Bandar Tasik Selatan" or
abbreviated "TBS-BTS". Surely not the most catchy name for a bus terminal so we will stick we
the term "TBS". Bandar Tasik Selatan is the area of KL it is located in, translated it means "South
Lake City". The adjacent LRT station is also called "Bandar Tasik Selatan". TBS serves south-bound
buses, hence the the word "Selatan" in the name, which means "south".

TBS was opened in 2011 as effort of the city to transform the long-distance bus system in city and
lower traffic congestion around the old Puduraya Bus Terminal in the city center, which handled
all long-distance buses before. After Puduraya - now called Pudu Sentral - was renovated and
reopened in 2011 it only serves north-bound buses, Putra Bus Terminal handles buses going to East
Coast and TBS takes care of southbound buses to destinations like Melaka and Singapore.

TBS is a super modern and huge terminal which resembles more of an airport than a bus
terminal. It also offers eTicketing and online booking through its website. Unlike Pudu Sentral it
is not located in city center but 30min south of it. So if you try to catch a bus it is recommended
to leave from the city center about 1h before departure. TBS has a direct connection to the KTM,
LRT und KLIA Transit train lines from the neighboring Bandar Tasik Selatan station.
