Willawong Bus Depot

The 6 hectare Willawong Bus Depot is Brisbane City Council’s largest bus storage facility. The depot includes a state-of-the-art depot administration building, staff recreational facilities, a garage and workshops, a refuelling and detailing building and associated car parking and hardstand for over 200 buses.

The industrial aesthetic of the sign program helps form the character of the site. Sign hardware and graphics draw upon elements from within the main roads traffic sign system, components with which the bus drivers interact on a daily basis.

The wayfinding system included external and interior signage as well as surface graphic treatments to bus hardstand and safeway zones. The strategy focuses on providing clear delineation between visitor and staff areas.
