History
Elizabeth Quay bus station was opened as City Busport on 30 November 1991 by Premier Carmen Lawrence.[2] It was renamed Esplanade Busport in September 2004.[3] On 31 January 2016, Esplanade Busport and Esplanade railway station were renamed to Elizabeth Quay bus station and Elizabeth Quay railway station. The renaming was controversial; the estimated cost was $700,000, at a time when the state government was running a significant budget deficit.[4]

Accidents and incidents
On 15 July 2015, a gas-fuelled Mercedes-Benz OC 500 LE caught fire whilst stationary in the 4th lane (more commonly known as lane D). During the fire, the building above the Busport was evacuated as a safety precaution. No-one was injured and it was said that the fire was caused by a coolant leak. The bus cost an estimated $750,000 and was completely destroyed in the fire.[43][44]
