There are two bus access points, from Wellington Street and Milligan Street, and three passenger entrances, at Yagan Square, Queen Street, and King Street.

In November 2016, Transperth announced changes to some bus network, including that from 4 December the following services would terminate at Perth Busport:

  • 30 - to Curtin University bus station via Elizabeth Quay Bus Station, Labouchere Road, Robert Street, Salter Point, Hope Avenue & Manning Road
  • 31 - to Salter Point via Elizabeth Quay Bus Station, Labouchere Road, Talbot Avenue, Canavan Crescent & Marsh Avenue
  • 34 - to Cannington station via Elizabeth Quay Bus Station, Angelo Street, Murray Street, Gillon Street, Curtin University bus station & Manning Road
  • Bus routes

    34 bus services start and terminate at Perth Busport. The busport uses a dynamic stand allocation system, meaning that services are only allocated a specific stand as they approach the busport.
