Edmonton Transit Service Government Centre Transit Centre

Government Centre Transit Centre is located among the Provincial Government buildings in Downtown, along 107 St between 98 Ave and 99 Ave. While the Transit Centre isn't directly connected to an LRT station like many are, it is within a 5-6 minute walk of the Government Centre LRT Station.
This Transit Centre was opened in mid-1982, replacing an off road bus loop located on the east side of 106 St between 96 Ave and 97 Ave, although the route 63 continued to use this loop for a time, before the property was converted fully into vehicle parking.
In addition to ETS buses, Government Centre also plays host to St. Albert and Strathcona County buses. The terminal sees rather limited use outside of peak hours, with only 2 ETS routes using it.
Perhaps because of this limited use, and being a rather sturdy built concrete building, the interior retains a quite dated, but maintained interior. Once Millgate is replaced by Davies with the opening of VLSE LRT, eventually, Government Centre will become the oldest transit centre building by a long shot. The second oldest would be the University shelter on the south side of the bus laneways, dating from the 1990's.

ETS 4963 at Government Centre as a route 128. ETS artics here are rare! In this instanced it was during a period in Covid's earlier days when artic buses were being assigned to a number of different routes, in this case, the 128.
