Terminal 1 of the Adelaide Central bus station was opened in September 1969 on the corner of Franklin and Bowen Streets. It was built by Adelaide City Council in conjunction with Pioneer Tours and a consortium of nine near-country operators.
In October 1971, Terminal 2 opened for use by 16 operators including Greyhound, Premier Roadlines and Stateliner.

In 2004, Adelaide City Council released a plan to redevelop the coach station.
