The East Jerusalem Central Bus Station is a transportation hub serving Arab neighborhoods in the city of Jerusalem and other locations in the West Bank. It is located on Sultan Suleiman Street across from the Old City's Damascus Gate[1], as well as the Damascus Gate light rail station for Jerusalem's Red Line.
Established in 1953, the station was leased to the Jerusalem municipality for thirty years. It is owned and operated by the Waqf administration responsible for a number of properties in the Old City.[2]
