The result was no consensus. Although a rename to Hobart Bus Mall sounds like it is in order. kelapstick(bainuu) 15:41, 25 July 2015 (UTC)

Non notable bus station - There's nothing at all on Google or High Beam. Fails GNG –Davey2010Talk 16:43, 28 June 2015 (UTC)

Keep and possibly rename - central public transport station in an Australian capital city, which in my opinion automatically grants notability. It possibly has the significance of a central train station since Hobart has no trains or trams. Finally: the article name seems to be a poor choice. I'm not from Hobart, but a quick google suggests "Hobart Bus Mall" is the common name, while "Hobart City" is the official name on the timetables. So it should probably be renamed to one of them.

- Keep and rename Hobart Bus Mall. just as adpete said southern Tasmania has nothing but busses, no trams or trains. They are doing a large remodel too on the bus mall. [1] Most exciting, assaults on Taz bus drivers are down 50%! [2] Alec Station (talk) 11:54, 30 June 2015 (UTC)
- Delete. Just a street with bus stops on it. Not a proper bus station. There are thousands of the former in cities all over the world; they don't have articles. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:15, 1 July 2015 (UTC)
- It's about the transit mall which is significant (and not a station). It is being given a $2million revitalisation project that is very significant.[3] [4] Alec Station (talk) 03:45, 2 July 2015 (UTC)
- Yes. I've looked at it on Google Streetview. It's just a few bus stops on a street. I've seen larger bus stations in small towns in Europe. -- Necrothesp (talk) 09:34, 2 July 2015 (UTC)

- Redirect to Transport_in_Hobart#Public_Transport. Not notable, not interesting, but information on the bus system as a whole belongs at the target. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 04:50, 13 July 2015 (UTC)
- Keep per User:Alec Station's references. The development has received significant coverage in multiple independent sources, so the subject passes WP:GNG. StAnselm (talk) 09:55, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

- Redirect to Transport_in_Hobart#Public_Transport. No sources verify anything important or significant beyond the mere existence and function of this bus station. AadaamS (talk) 18:11, 18 July 2015 (UTC)
