What is a "terminus"?
A terminus is the final stop or end point of a bus, train, or other public transportation route.

A terminus is typically a larger, more organized station or stop, providing facilities for passengers to board or disembark. It may also offer connections to other routes, making it a key point for travelers looking to transfer to different modes of transportation.
