Fifteen years ago, the old bus station of Vitoria-Gasteiz, Spain was demolished. Then some years later, Artium Museum was built in the place where the old bus station had been built. After demolishing the old bus station, a new one was built in Los Herran street. However, the current bus station in Vitoria, the one in Los Herran street, is just working temporarily, because in May 2011 the construction of the new bus station was going to begin. Some months prior, the town hall organized a competition in which the participants, taking in account some requirements, were asked to design an intermodal bus station in Vitoria. Eight companies presented their jobs, and the town hall decided that the project designed by Fernando Ruiz de Ocenda, Iñaki Usandizaga and Francisco Javier Garcia de Acilu (in contribution with trakteplan engineries) was the most appropriate. Purpose The new bus station, which later will be part of an intermodal station, is going to be constructed in Arriaga park. This construction, is going to occupy 30% of the whole park, 13,639 meters of its totality of extension. It is going to be located on the corner of the southwest part of the park, next to America Latina roundabout, and giving its face to Honduras Street. It is said that this new building is going to create more than a hundred jobs during its construction, and 3500 more after being constructed, so as to make it work properly. Due to this fact, it is expected that the unemployment in Vitoria will go down noticeably. When the project was designed, the whole construction and the ramp-up to operation was expected to cost 15 million euros. However, lately the budget has increased to 18.5 million euros due to the improvement of the project. In addition, a new underground car park is going to be built which will benefit the people who live in that neighbourhood and also the travellers. This bus station, will also have some elements which will absorb energy from the sun. These elements will create the 50% of the energy which the station will need to work. The designers of the project, have also decided to put a monolith made of copper which will be a symbol of the intermodal station and which will also function as the support of a screen which will show the timetable of the buses and trains. This monolith, will
