The sun is cooking passengers at Ljubljana's new bus station, with the shade still being built

The new temporary bus station in Ljubljana has been criticized for lacking basic amenities such as shade or shelter for passengers waiting for buses during hot weather. The old bus station, which was too small and outdated, at least provided some cover from the sun and nearby buildings offered additional shade. In contrast, the new location lacks these features, leaving passengers exposed to direct sunlight on newly laid asphalt. While Slovenian Railways plans to install a larger canopy with seating in the coming weeks, this will not immediately address the current discomfort for passengers, especially during the already sweltering summer heat. The temporary station is expected to remain in place until the permanent transportation center opens around 2028.
