Victoria bus station is a bus station outside London Victoria station. It is managed only by Transport for London.[1] In 1970, work commenced on a substantial roof canopy.[2] This was demolished in April 2003 as part of the station's refurbishment.[3]

Routes 3, 38, 52 and 390 terminate within the bus station while others pass through. Many other routes pass by on adjoining streets but do not enter the bus station.[4] [5]
