The ZOB Berlin is an important point of domestic and international long-distance bus transport.

[3] In 2012, the ZOB recorded around 64,000 arrivals and departures with more than 3.2 million passengers and visitors,[4] in the following year, the number rose to 99,870.

The importance of the ZOB for the German capital is underlined, among other things, by its proximity to the exhibition grounds.

In addition, a basic overhaul of the buildings including energetic renovation as well as an extension of the bus stop shelter in House A is planned.

Construction was scheduled to begin in June 2016 and was then expected to take three years but ultimately took longer.

The waiting hall will be a two-storey terminal with a glass façade and will then offer 280 seats (previously 76) as well as gastronomic facilities.

[13] On 21 November 2017 - at the end of the first reconstruction phase - the first ten renewed stop bays were put into operation.
