The technical design for Vilnius’ new bus station is now halfway complete, Mayor Valdas Benkunskas said.
The new station will be built beside the existing railway station. Authorities expect to obtain a construction permit in spring 2027.
The project is complicated because it must balance the interests of different road users. Public transport and intercity bus services must continue operating throughout construction, which could last about two years. The final cost has not yet been determined.
